Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

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 is not prepared the repair will not last.

The process

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Tresevern Croft. What changes the price is:

  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your TR3 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Should you replace it?

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Common questions in Tresevern Croft

Can you match granite flecks?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you come to Tresevern Croft?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Tresevern Croft from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Typically. A picture lets us check what’s possible.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only around the repair. You can normally still use the rest of the kitchen.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Repairs by material

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

For anyone letting property in or around Tresevern Croft, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
