Repair or replace: which is better?

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How it works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

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

Materials we work on in White Post

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Quartz

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

Wood

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

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Do not leave spills to soak in

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

White Post questions

Does someone need to be in?

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

Do you come to White Post?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to White Post for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

What happens after I send pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just near the damage. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
