Walpole: your questions answered

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

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

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.

What does worktop repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Any details about the material
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Use a chopping board
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

Repairing versus replacing in Walpole

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • No need to remove anything

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Walpole, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

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 we are called out for in Walpole

Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, and that can make them swell.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Knife marks
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • Chips near the sink

Comparing quotes

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How changes to the job are handled
