FAQs for Pulborough
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Just near the damage. You can generally still use the rest of the kitchen.
Are there extra charges for Pulborough?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, filled and polished to match.
Worktop repair in Pulborough without replacing anything
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. The goal is always a repair that blends in. We’re frequently asked to fix chips caused during installation and a heat mark or burn, in granite & marble, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian).
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Repairs by material
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Pulborough. The price comes down to:
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your RH20 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Wipe up spills quickly
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
Honest limits
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Severe heat marks in quartz
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

When to call us in Pulborough
Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips on edges and corners
- A heat mark or burn
- Damage from fitting or building work
- Chips in quartz or granite
Before booking anyone
- How soon you can use it again
- How your room will be protected
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
