Common questions in Stanmore

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, filled and polished to match.

How much do I need to move?

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

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is it messy?

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

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop

Most customers in Stanmore get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • No need to remove anything
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • A top that moves on its units
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

What we’re called out for in Stanmore

People typically call us when they notice one of these:

  • A heat mark or burn
  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Dents and gouges
