Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Aldworth use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Keep wood oiled

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

What we’re called out for in Aldworth

The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

Common reasons people in Aldworth contact us are:

  • Gouges in the surface
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • Scratches and knife marks

Before you book anyone

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What prep work is covered
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Aldworth, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Related advice

Should you replace it?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

Common questions in Aldworth

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Usually. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you.

Are you accredited?

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

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Oxfordshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

What does worktop repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Aldworth. The price comes down to:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

For a price in Aldworth, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
