DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

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

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

What we’re called out for in Steyning

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives leave scratches, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • A chipped edge
  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • A dent from a dropped pan

Questions from Steyning

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Normally. Send us a photo and we will tell you.

How much do I need to move?

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

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Failed support under the worktop

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Steyning

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

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Related advice

What affects the price in Steyning

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Different materials, different repairs

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Should you replace it?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Our worktop repair starts 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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
