What affects the price in Quayside

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Do you need worktop repair in Quayside?

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives cut, and heavy pans chip the edges.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Knife marks
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Chips on edges and corners

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How the colour is matched
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Quayside: your questions answered

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

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

Can you quote from pictures?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Solid surface

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

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Open a window if you can
