How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Common questions in Wigston

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can you match granite flecks?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

What does worktop repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LE18 postcode.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

How soon can you come?

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

Should you replace it?

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Most jobs done in one visit

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

When to call us in Wigston

Sink and hob cut-outs are weak points, and that is where cracks often begin.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • A chipped edge
  • Damage around the sink cut-out

What to look for in a quote

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
