Thurleigh: your questions answered

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes, often. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

Do you work in Thurleigh?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Thurleigh and the rest of Bedford Borough. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

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

Can you match granite flecks?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.

Solid surface

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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.

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  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

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

What we’re called out for in Thurleigh

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Gouges in the surface
  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • A damaged sink edge

Before booking anyone

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How the colour is matched

Our hiring checklist

What we cannot put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repairing versus replacing in Thurleigh

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Colour-matched on site
