Worktop repair in Alveston

Worktop repair at your home in Alveston

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We work on laminate, solid wood and quartz, and the jobs we see most are cuts and scratches in the surface and scorch marks from pans.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

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

Landlord and trade work in Alveston

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Common questions in Alveston

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Usually. A picture lets us check.

Do you cover Alveston?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Alveston for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What does worktop repair cost?

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

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

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

What your worktop is made of matters

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
