What affects the price in Summertown

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Summertown. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Common problems we fix in Summertown

Sink and hob cut-outs are weak points, so cracks and chips frequently start there.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Burns from hot pans
  • Dents and gouges
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Damage around the sink cut-out

Questions to ask before you book

  • What preparation is included
  • When it can be used again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How the colour is matched

FAQs for Summertown

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Are you accredited?

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

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

When can you do it?

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

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Why repair rather than replace?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Read our full price list.

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Failed support under the worktop

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Summertown

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

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.

Wood

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

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Get a quote

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

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

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
