Book worktop repair in Medomsley

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Wooden worktop being repaired in a customer’s kitchen

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

Questions from Medomsley

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Just near the damage. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Medomsley

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Medomsley as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in County Durham and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Should you replace it?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

How to compare quotes

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
