When to call us in Nether Heage

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Chips in quartz or granite

How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
Should you replace it?
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good.

What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

What else we do in Nether Heage
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

FAQs for Nether Heage
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Are there extra charges for Nether Heage?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
