What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Getting ready for the visit

10 questions to ask before booking

Your questions about worktop repair in Neames Forstal

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Clean spills straight away
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What affects the price in Neames Forstal

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Neames Forstal. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your ME13 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
