Worktop Repair in Hertfordshire

Worktop repair across Hertfordshire: what to expect

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We work on laminate, granite & marble and solid wood, and people most often call us about chips near the sink and damage to a stone worktop.

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we will keep you posted as we go.

1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

What it costs in Hertfordshire

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

• Always use a trivet for hot pans
• Take care with heavy pans near edges
• Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
• Wipe up spills quickly

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
