How we handle worktop repair in Market Weston

The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. We build up the colour and flecks by hand. We’re frequently asked to fix scorch marks from pans and chips caused during installation, across granite & marble, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian).

Every job is backed for twelve months in Market Weston and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Our hiring checklist

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Oil wooden tops regularly

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Your questions about worktop repair in Market Weston

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Are there extra charges for Market Weston?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Granite & marble
  • Quartz
  • Solid wood
  • Laminate
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
