How we handle worktop repair in Batchworth Heath

Each type of worktop needs a different approach: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. We always aim for a repair that blends in. We are frequently asked to fix chips caused during installation and scorch marks from pans, on laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and solid wood.

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

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

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

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

  • Laminate
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
