Common questions in South Charlton

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

How much does worktop repair cost in South Charlton?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your NE66 postcode.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around South Charlton, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Keep a trivet by the hob

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

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

What we cannot put right

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Can I fix it myself?

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

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
