Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Clean spills straight away

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

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

What affects the price in Penistone

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Honest limits

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Common questions in Penistone

What happens after I send photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Do you work in Penistone?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Penistone from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Normally. A picture lets us check what’s possible.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

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

Repairing versus replacing in Penistone

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Repairs by material

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Solid surface

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

Landlord and trade work in Penistone

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

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.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
