Repairs by material

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

FAQs for Thorpe on the Hill

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

What happens after I send photos?

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

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Are there extra charges for Thorpe on the Hill?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Do you cover the whole of Lincolnshire?

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode

If you are in Thorpe on the Hill and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Why repair rather than replace?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
