FAQs for Whitehill

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Generally. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand.

Will the price change on the day?

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

How we handle worktop repair in Whitehill

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand. Common call-outs are for damage from fitting or building work and chips near the sink, on quartz, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian).

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in

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

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

What we’re called out for in Whitehill

Edges and corners chip most frequently, often when something heavy catches the edge.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • A chipped edge
  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Chips near the sink

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Whitehill. The price reflects:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

If you are in Whitehill and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us photos 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.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Failed support under the worktop

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

Materials we work on in Whitehill

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