Trusted worktop repair in Stow cum Quy

How it works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

When we would advise against a repair

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

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

When to call us in Stow cum Quy

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A damaged sink edge
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Chipped corners
  • A dent from a dropped pan

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What prep work is covered
  • If travel is included in the price

Common questions in Stow cum Quy

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only the area we are working on. The rest is covered and protected.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes, frequently. We match the colour and polish the repair.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Will you leave a mess?

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

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Re-oil timber worktops

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

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Granite and stone

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

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.

What affects the price in Stow cum Quy

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Stow cum Quy. What changes the price is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Stow cum Quy. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
