Questions from Presteigne

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Presteigne.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Typically, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

How we handle worktop repair in Presteigne

Different worktops need different repairs: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. We always aim for a repair that blends in. If you are dealing with a heat mark or burn and scratches and knife marks, we can typically put it right, on solid surface (such as Corian), quartz and solid wood alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

How to compare quotes

Different materials, different repairs

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repair or replace in Presteigne?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Presteigne. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colour-matched on site

See our prices page.

What affects the price in Presteigne

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Presteigne. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Use a chopping board
  • Do not leave spills to soak in

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Presteigne

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
