DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Tŷ Sign. What changes the price is:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the entire worktop

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Use a chopping board

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

What your worktop is made of matters

Quartz

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

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Common problems we fix in Tŷ Sign

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, and that can make them swell.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • A damaged sink edge
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • A chipped edge

What to look for in a quote

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
