Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Do you need worktop repair in Saxlingham Thorpe?

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Burns from hot pans
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Chipped corners

Questions to ask before you book

  • If travel is included in the price
  • What prep work is covered
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

10 questions to ask before booking

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

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

Materials we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Use a chopping board
  • Keep joints and edges dry

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

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

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Saxlingham Thorpe questions

Do you work in Saxlingham Thorpe?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Saxlingham Thorpe from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

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

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, matched and polished.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole worktop and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  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. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

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.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Saxlingham Thorpe, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
