DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

How we handle worktop repair in Ashwood

Different worktops need different repairs: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. We always aim for a repair that blends in. We work on solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and laminate, and people most frequently call us about a heat mark or burn and scratches and knife marks.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Re-oil timber worktops

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

Ashwood: your questions answered

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Ashwood?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DY6 postcode.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Ashwood. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Repairs by material

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.

Common problems we fix in Ashwood

The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Knife marks
  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Chipped corners
  • Chips in quartz or granite

Before booking anyone

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How to care for the finish
