Old Town: your questions answered

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Frequently, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What worktop repair costs

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

  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Different materials, different repairs

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

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

What we work on

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

Repair or replace in Old Town?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Never put hot pans down directly

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
