How we handle worktop repair in Tanlan

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand. Our technicians work on solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and quartz, and people most frequently call us about a dent from a dropped pan and damage around the sink cut-out.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Keep joints and edges dry

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

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

If you manage property in Tanlan, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the entire worktop

For a price in Tanlan, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can price the job without visiting.

Advice

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is generally far better value. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • No need to remove anything

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

When to call us in Tanlan

Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, and that is where cracks often begin.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Dents and gouges
  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Knife marks

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How long it needs to cure
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Our hiring checklist

Your questions about worktop repair in Tanlan

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you work in Tanlan?

We do. We send a technician to Tanlan for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Are there extra charges for Tanlan?

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