We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Worktop repair in Stour Provost without replacing anything

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Whether it’s scratches and knife marks and chips in quartz or granite, we can help, whatever the material.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dorset.

What affects the price in Stour Provost

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Most clients in Stour Provost get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Should you replace it?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Choosing a repair company

What your worktop is made of matters

Quartz

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

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

When we’d advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Stour Provost, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Common questions in Stour Provost

Is there a guarantee?

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

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Are there extra charges for Stour Provost?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
