Questions from Washfold

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Does someone need to be in?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

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

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Wipe up spills quickly

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Repairs by material

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Granite and stone

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

When we’d advise against a repair

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported

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

Materials we repair

  • Solid wood
  • Laminate
  • Quartz
  • Granite & marble
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)

What we are called out for in Washfold

Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, and that is where cracks often begin.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Chipped corners
  • A heat mark or burn
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface

What to look for in a quote

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Aftercare advice
