How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Most customers in Orton Waterville get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Solid surface

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

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Orton Waterville, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Common problems we fix in Orton Waterville

Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, which can cause swelling.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chips caused during installation
  • Dents and gouges
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • Chipped corners

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What preparation is included
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
