Repair or replace in Shandon?

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Repairs by material

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

What we do, step by step

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 usually takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your G84 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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.

Do you need worktop repair in Shandon?

Edges and corners chip most often, often when something heavy catches the edge.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • A chipped edge
  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • A damaged sink edge

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who turns up on the day
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • If travel is included in the price

Choosing a repair company

Landlords, agents and businesses in Shandon

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.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Shandon. What changes the price is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Water-swollen laminate

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Your questions about worktop repair in Shandon

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

How much do I need to move?

Only around the repair. You can normally still use the rest of the kitchen.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
