How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Clean spills straight away
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Keep wood oiled

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

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

What your worktop is made of matters

Solid surface

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

Granite and stone

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

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 will reply with a fixed price.

Common questions in Scorton

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Scorton?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What we cannot put right

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

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

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

Materials we repair

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

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Getting ready for the visit
