I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

About our worktop repair in Newchapel

Different worktops need different repairs: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. The goal is always a repair that blends in. Common call-outs are for damage from fitting or building work and chips in quartz or granite, on granite & marble, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian).

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Different materials, different repairs

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Use a chopping board
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Never put hot pans down directly

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Signs you need worktop repair in Newchapel

The things customers typically mention when they call include:

  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Gouges in the surface
  • Damage to a stone worktop

Before booking anyone
