It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • Dents and gouges
  • A chipped edge
  • A chipped quartz edge

Our hiring checklist

Worktop repair in Sleights without replacing anything

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand. If you’re dealing with burns from hot pans and a chipped edge, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

What affects the price in Sleights

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Landlord and trade work in Sleights

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in North Yorkshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Different materials, different repairs

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.

Laminate

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

Repairing versus replacing in Sleights

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Wipe up spills quickly

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
