Trusted worktop repair in Three Chimneys

What affects the price in Three Chimneys

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common questions in Three Chimneys

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Are there extra charges for Three Chimneys?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Repairs by material

Quartz

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

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

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

Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

When to call us in Three Chimneys

Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, which can cause swelling.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • A damaged sink edge
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Knife marks
  • Chips in quartz or granite

Before booking anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How changes to the job are handled

Choosing a repair company

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Most customers in Three Chimneys get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Should you replace it?

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Everything repaired in place
  • One price list for the entire UK

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
