Common questions in West Hatch

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Somerset.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, 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 redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the area around the damage covered. Most repairs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. Our repair technicians work on laminate, quartz and solid surface (such as Corian), and the jobs we see most are chipped corners and chips caused during installation.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including West Hatch. What changes the price is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for West Hatch. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A photo taken from further back

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.

Granite and stone

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

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Failed support under the worktop

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is generally far better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your TA3 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in West Hatch

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

If you manage property in West Hatch, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Never put hot pans down directly

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills right away, and keep wooden tops oiled.

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