Questions from Surlingham

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

What happens after I send pictures?

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

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you charge for travel?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

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

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

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 over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

Granite and stone

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

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Surlingham use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Surlingham. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
