Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Otterbourne

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material

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

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

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

Materials we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

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

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Do not leave spills to soak in

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills immediately, and keep wooden tops oiled.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Questions from Otterbourne

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What happens after I send pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  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. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Otterbourne. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
