Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Woolmer Green. The price reflects:

  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Quotes from your pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material

Most customers in Woolmer Green get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

About our worktop repair in Woolmer Green

A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. We are often asked to fix dents and gouges and damage from fitting or building work, on laminate, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian).

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Oil wooden tops regularly

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

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

When to call us in Woolmer Green

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.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Chips near the sink
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Scratches and knife marks

Choosing a repair company

What we cannot put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  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. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Woolmer Green: your questions answered

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

What your worktop is made of matters

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Woolmer Green

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
