About our worktop repair in Ampleforth

The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. We build up the colour and flecks by hand so the repair blends in. We work on granite & marble, solid wood and laminate, and people most often call us about damage around the sink cut-out and chips on edges and corners.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any details about the material

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Clean spills immediately
  • Keep a trivet by the hob

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills straight away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Ampleforth questions

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Ampleforth.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Do you work in Ampleforth?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Ampleforth and the rest of North Yorkshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

In most cases. A picture lets us check.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How it works

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Different materials, different repairs

Wood

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

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
