Worktop repair near Selling

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.

  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. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your ME13 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills immediately, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Selling as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

FAQs for Selling

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you match granite flecks?

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

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you cover Selling?

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

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Selling. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Selling. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Repair or replace in Selling?

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
