DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in Middle Handley

Landlord and trade work in Middle Handley

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

What your worktop is made of matters

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

How it works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  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. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Related advice

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A photo taken from further back

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Common problems we fix in Middle Handley

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, and that can make them swell.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Burns from hot pans
  • Chips near the sink
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Damage from fitting or building work

What to look for in a quote

  • How your room will be protected
  • When it can be used again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
