About our worktop repair in Barton Mills

For landlords and businesses

What your worktop is made of matters

Granite and stone

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

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

When we’d advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

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

Materials we work on in Barton Mills

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

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Do not let water sit on joints

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.

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

When to call us in Barton Mills

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, and that can make them swell.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Burns from hot pans

What your quote should include

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just near the damage. You can usually still use the rest of the kitchen.

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire worktop and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.

How much does worktop repair cost in Barton Mills?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your IP28 postcode.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Barton Mills

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can price the job without visiting.

Advice

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
