Preston: your questions answered
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How much do I need to move?
Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes, often. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Never put hot pans down directly
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The process
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
