DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Common questions in Upthorpe

Do you repair quartz?

Yes, frequently. We match the colour and polish the repair.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Do you cover the whole of Gloucestershire?

We cover the whole UK, including Upthorpe and the rest of Gloucestershire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

Is there any odour?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What affects the price in Upthorpe

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Upthorpe. The price comes down to:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match

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. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Upthorpe, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Upthorpe as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Different materials, different repairs

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Common problems we fix in Upthorpe

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, which can cause swelling.

Look out for these signs:

  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Chipped corners
  • A dent from a dropped pan

What to look for in a quote

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

Choosing a repair company

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Keep joints and edges dry

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
