What affects the price in Redtye

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from pictures

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Repairing versus replacing in Redtye

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Redtye. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Clean spills immediately
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Choosing a repair company

Repairs by material

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get 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 will reply with a fixed quote.
