Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Use a chopping board

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your ML12 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

If you manage property in Symington, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Different materials, different repairs

Solid surface
