Common questions in Wookey

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

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

Do you cover the entire of Somerset?

We cover the entire UK, including Wookey and the rest of Somerset. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you work in Wookey?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Wookey. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Wookey, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Common problems we fix in Wookey

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives cut, and heavy pans chip the edges.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Burns from hot pans
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • A damaged sink edge
  • Chips on edges and corners

What to look for in a quote

  • If travel is included in the price
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether they match the colour on site

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match

There are no surprise 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.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

If you’re in Wookey and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Repairing versus replacing in Wookey

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
