  • Burns from hot pans
  • Chips caused during installation
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Chips on edges and corners

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How the room is protected while they work

How to compare quotes

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the area is dry

Advice

Different materials, different repairs

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.

What affects the price in Staplestreet

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

For a price in Staplestreet, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Landlord and trade work in Staplestreet

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
