Worktop repair in Ambrosden

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How we handle worktop repair in Ambrosden

A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the pattern. Our technicians work on quartz, granite & marble and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are chips near the sink and chips on edges and corners.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Chipped corners
  • Dents and gouges
  • Scorch marks from pans

How to compare quotes

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • A top that moves on its units

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
