Common questions in New England

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

When we’d advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in New England

  • Solid surface (such as Corian)

  • Quartz
  • Laminate

Landlord and trade work in New England

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

If you manage property in New England, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage, tidy-up included.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Clean spills immediately
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

10 questions to ask before booking

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Getting a price from pictures

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
