DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What affects the price in Tatling End

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Tatling End. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, 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.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For a price in Tatling End, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Common questions in Tatling End

When can you do it?

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

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Usually, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.

What we are called out for in Tatling End

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, which can cause swelling.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Dents and gouges
  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Chips near the sink
  • Chips in quartz or granite

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace in Tatling End?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  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

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Do not knock pans against the edge

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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