Questions from Taddington

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just near the damage. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Normally. Send us a picture and we will tell you what’s possible.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

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

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Use a chopping board

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

Work for landlords and builders

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

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What your worktop is made of matters

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For a price in Taddington, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
