Questions from Woolston

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you repair quartz?

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

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only around the repair. You can generally still use the rest of the kitchen.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Woolston.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

How it works

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Use a chopping board
  • Re-oil timber worktops

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

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Common problems we fix in Woolston

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

Common reasons people in Woolston contact us are:

  • Chipped corners
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • A damaged sink edge

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who turns up on the day
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How the colour is matched

How to compare quotes

Different materials, different repairs

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.
