Questions from Whitehough Head

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, filled and polished to match.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

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

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Choosing a repair company

Landlords, agents and businesses in Whitehough Head

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Oil wooden tops regularly

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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.
