How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Clean spills right away
  • Use a chopping board
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Wood

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

Common questions in Alumwell

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

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Do you cover Alumwell?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Alumwell and the rest of Walsall. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What does worktop repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What happens after I send photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Repair or replace: which is better?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What you get with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Most jobs done in one visit

What affects the price in Alumwell

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Alumwell. The price comes down to:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed price

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your WS2 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

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

What we work on

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

What we’re called out for in Alumwell

Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, which can cause swelling.
