Worktop repair in Begbroke

Why repair rather than replace?

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Worktop repair in Begbroke, done in place

A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. We regularly repair solid wood, quartz and solid surface (such as Corian), and people most often call us about dents and gouges and chips near the sink.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

For a price in Begbroke, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Questions from Begbroke

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Begbroke and the rest of Oxfordshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only around the repair. You can usually still use the rest of the kitchen.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Wipe up spills quickly

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

What we are called out for in Begbroke

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives leave scratches, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Burns from hot pans
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • A damaged sink edge

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What preparation is included

The process

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
