Choosing a repair company

Repairing versus replacing in Rooksdown

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. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why us?

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Same prices wherever you are

Rooksdown: your questions answered

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Rooksdown included. Travel is included in the price.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, filled and polished to match.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

In most cases. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode

If you’re in Rooksdown and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Rooksdown

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Do not let water sit on joints

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
