Questions from Poulton

Only the area we’re working on. The rest is covered and protected.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Gloucestershire.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How much does worktop repair cost in Poulton?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Are you accredited?

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

What we cannot put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A top that moves on its units

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Use a chopping board
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Clean spills straight away

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

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

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs

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 you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Different materials, different repairs

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

What we’re called out for in Poulton

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

People generally call us after spotting something like this:

  • Chipped corners
  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • A dent from a dropped pan

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who will actually do the work
  • When it can be used again
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

10 questions to ask before booking

Repair or replace: which is better?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
