Trusted worktop repair in Ashwellthorpe

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Use a chopping board
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

How we handle worktop repair in Ashwellthorpe

The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand so the repair blends in. Whether it’s knife marks and chips on edges and corners, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Ashwellthorpe and across Norfolk.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. 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. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Repairing versus replacing in Ashwellthorpe

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. A repair is matched to what you have now. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  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. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

Advice

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
