What your worktop is made of matters

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Your questions about worktop repair in Aingers Green

Do you come out to small places like Aingers Green?

Of course; we work in small places too. Let us know about access and parking.

Do you work for schools and businesses in Aingers Green?

Yes, we work for schools, leisure centres and businesses, and our accreditations include CHAS and Constructionline. Send photos and details of the building.

Are you accredited?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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.

Aftercare tips

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

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Never put hot pans down directly

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.

Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Aingers Green

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Why repair rather than replace?

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. For a rural home like those around Aingers Green, a replacement means trades travelling out and waste being taken away, while a repair is a single visit.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Aingers Green customers choose us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result. In a village or hamlet like Aingers Green, access can be the only tricky part. Once we’re there, the worktop repair works exactly as anywhere else.

  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.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

  • Burns from hot pans
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
