Trusted worktop repair in Battledown Cross

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Use a chopping board
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Keep joints and edges dry

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

About our worktop repair in Battledown Cross

We repair worktops in place, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most jobs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. If you are dealing with chipped corners and a heat mark or burn, we can usually put it right.

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

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your EX21 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Honest limits

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Water-swollen laminate

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in Battledown Cross

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

Common problems we fix in Battledown Cross

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives cut, and heavy pans chip the edges.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • A chipped edge
  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Knife marks

Before you book anyone

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to compare quotes

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.

Quartz

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