Different materials, different repairs

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Common questions in Tolvaddon

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Tolvaddon?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Tolvaddon. Prices do not change with location.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

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.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • Failed support under the worktop

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Repairing versus replacing in Tolvaddon

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Do you need worktop repair in Tolvaddon?

The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

Clients typically contact us about:

  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Dents and gouges
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Knife marks

What to look for in a quote

  • How the colour is matched
  • What prep work is covered
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
