Keeping it looking good

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

  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Clean spills immediately
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Use a chopping board

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting 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 entire worktop, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Abingworth, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Abingworth use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

What we are called out for in Abingworth

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Chips near the sink
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Knife marks
  • Chips on edges and corners

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Choosing a repair company

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • A top that moves on its units

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

Materials we work on in Abingworth

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

FAQs for Abingworth

Do you charge for travel?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Is it messy?

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

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you work in Abingworth?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Abingworth from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

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.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
