Ruscote questions

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

What affects the price in Ruscote

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Ruscote. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Related advice

What a repair cannot fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

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

Surfaces we repair

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

How to care for the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Clean spills immediately
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

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

Should you replace it?

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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ruscote. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • A fixed quote before you book

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
