How we handle worktop repair in Ashton

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We regularly repair solid surface (such as Corian), laminate and granite & marble, and common reasons people contact us are a dent from a dropped pan and damage to a stone worktop.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can

Repairs by material

Quartz

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

Granite and stone

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ashton

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

10 questions to ask before you book

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Ashton: your questions answered

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes, frequently. We match the colour and polish the repair.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

How much do I need to move?

Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Should you replace it?

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
