Worktop repair near West Devon

West Devon: your questions answered

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

How much do I need to move?

Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including West Devon and the rest of Devon. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Worktop repair in West Devon without replacing anything

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand. Common call-outs are for burns from hot pans and a damaged sink edge, across solid wood, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian).

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

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

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for West Devon. What changes the price is:

  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

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.

Do you need worktop repair in West Devon?

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

People usually call us after spotting something like this:

  • Chips on edges and corners
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen

Before you book anyone

  • What prep work is covered
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to compare quotes

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Clean spills straight away

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.

Granite and stone

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

How it works

You do not need to empty the room. 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 few hours, depending on the damage, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

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.

What a repair can’t fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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