Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Clean spills straight away
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Keep joints and edges dry

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

Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Different materials, different repairs

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Solid surface

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Questions from North Elmsall

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How it works

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  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

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

When to call us in North Elmsall

Sink and hob cut-outs are weak points, so cracks and chips frequently start there.

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

  • A chipped edge
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • Knife marks
  • Dents and gouges

Questions to ask before booking

  • If travel is included in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a repair company

Repairing versus replacing in North Elmsall

A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why North Elmsall customers choose us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Same prices wherever you are

Take a look at our prices page.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
