Maylandsea: your questions answered
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Do you cover Maylandsea?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Maylandsea. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Maylandsea.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
What your worktop is made of matters
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Landlord and trade work in Maylandsea
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repair or replace in Maylandsea?
Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
