Winkton questions

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Normally, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

How we handle worktop repair in Winkton

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We are often asked to fix damage around the sink cut-out and dents and gouges, in solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and quartz.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Winkton as everywhere else we work.

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work

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

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your BH23 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What we’re called out for in Winkton

The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • A heat mark or burn
  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Chips on edges and corners

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • When it can be used again
  • Who will actually do the work

How to compare quotes

Repairing versus replacing in Winkton

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Winkton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • No need to remove anything

Read our pricing.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

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

Materials we work on in Winkton

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

For landlords and businesses

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.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

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

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  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

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
