Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Red Hill, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

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

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Red Hill: your questions answered

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your ME18 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
