Repair or replace: which is better?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Prices start from £95. 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Everything repaired in place
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

When we’d advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

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

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Do not leave spills to soak in

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

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

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Open a window if you can

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What your worktop is made of matters

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.

Laminate

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