DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Quartz

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

Wood

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

Aperfield: your questions answered

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

How much do I need to move?

Only around the repair. You can generally still use the rest of the kitchen.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.

Do you cover Aperfield?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Aperfield from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Oil wooden tops regularly

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills right away, and keep wooden tops oiled.

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

Should you replace it?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is generally far better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

See our full price list.

The process

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  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. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your TN16 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Advice

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A picture taken from further back

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

When to call us in Aperfield

Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, and that’s where cracks frequently begin.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Chips near the sink
