About our worktop repair in Spring Cottage

The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand. Our repair technicians work on quartz, laminate and granite & marble, and the jobs we see most are a chipped edge and gouges in the surface.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Questions from Spring Cottage

How much do I need to move?

Just near the damage. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the whole worktop

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repairs by material

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

Repairing versus replacing in Spring Cottage

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Spring Cottage. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Colour-matched on site
  • We leave the room as we found it

See our full price list.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What we can’t put right

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair
