Repairing versus replacing in Yeoford

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

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

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

When we would advise against a repair

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Yeoford

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

Common problems we fix in Yeoford

Most worktop damage takes a second: 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 caused during installation
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Burns from hot pans

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

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. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Most customers in Yeoford get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
