West Tolgus questions
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, filled and polished to match.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How do I get a price for worktop repair in West Tolgus?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Repairs by material
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Repair or replace in West Tolgus?
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Clean spills straight away
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Dry around the sink and joints
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
