How the visit works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • 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 ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Related advice

When to call us in Northfleet

Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans leave burns, knives leave scratches, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

The things customers usually mention when they call are:

  • Scratches and knife marks
  • A chipped edge
  • Chips caused during installation
  • Gouges in the surface

What to look for in a quote

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Our hiring checklist

Northfleet questions

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Northfleet?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Are there extra charges for Northfleet?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Can you match granite flecks?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Northfleet and the rest of Kent. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Different materials, different repairs

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Northfleet

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

Landlord and trade work in Northfleet

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Use a chopping board
  • Clean spills straight away
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

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

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Why repair rather than replace?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
