Trusted worktop repair in Ardminish

What your worktop is made of matters

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

Granite and stone

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

How we handle worktop repair in Ardminish

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen. Most repairs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. Typical jobs include snagging damage in a new kitchen and burns from hot pans, across solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Keep a trivet by the hob

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills straight away, and keep wooden tops oiled.

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

Repair or replace in Ardminish?

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
