Our hiring checklist

Worktop repair at your home in Wadesmill

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Our repair technicians work on solid wood, laminate and quartz, and people most often call us about a heat mark or burn and chips caused during installation.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Questions from Wadesmill

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

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

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Do you work in Wadesmill?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Wadesmill from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Use a chopping board
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Keep wood oiled

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.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Should you replace it?

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Wadesmill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Different materials, different repairs

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

Granite and stone

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wadesmill

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

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.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Wadesmill. The price reflects:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can

Get a quote

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Advice

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
