Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Rowfant. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Rowfant, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Solid surface

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

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Make sure the area is dry

Common questions in Rowfant

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

In most cases. A picture lets us check.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Do you cover Rowfant?

We do. We send a technician to Rowfant for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

How much do I need to move?

Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

When to call us in Rowfant

Edges and corners chip most often, generally from pans, tins or dishes knocked against them.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • A damaged sink edge
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Gouges in the surface

Before you book anyone

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
