What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the area is dry

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • No extra charge for your area

What we can’t put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

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

Swallow: your questions answered

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand.

What areas do you cover?

All of Lincolnshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

How much does worktop repair cost in Swallow?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Do you cover Swallow?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Swallow for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Often, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What worktop repair costs

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit

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

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

If you are in Swallow and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
