Materials and what they mean for the repair

Granite and stone

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

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

What affects the price in West Woodburn

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

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Should you replace it?

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. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Landlord and trade work in West Woodburn

For anyone letting property in or around West Woodburn, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Clean spills straight away
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Oil wooden tops regularly

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Questions from West Woodburn

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Do you cover the entire of Northumberland?

We work UK-wide, so West Woodburn is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How much do I need to move?

Only the area we’re working on. The rest is covered and protected.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
