Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

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

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

What affects the price in North Lee

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Granite & marble
  • Laminate
  • Solid wood
  • Quartz

North Lee questions

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, filled and polished to match.

Do you cover North Lee?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to North Lee for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
