10 questions to ask before you book

Worktop repair in Stobswood without replacing anything

A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. We regularly repair granite & marble, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate, and people most often call us about a dent from a dropped pan and chipped corners.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

Laminate

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

Stobswood: your questions answered

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What does worktop repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you work in Stobswood?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Stobswood for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you cover the entire of Northumberland?

We cover the entire UK, including Stobswood and the rest of Northumberland. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you match granite flecks?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

How to look after the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is normally far better value. Prices start from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Take a look at our full price list.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs 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 much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage.

  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. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
