About our worktop repair in Besthorpe

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the area around the damage covered. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. Our repair technicians work on granite & marble, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian), and common reasons people contact us are chips in quartz or granite and knife marks.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, tidy-up included.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: 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.

Questions from Besthorpe

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is there a guarantee?

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

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Besthorpe included. Travel is included in the price.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole worktop and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Besthorpe

  • Laminate
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Solid wood

When to call us in Besthorpe

Most chips are on edges and corners, often when something heavy catches the edge.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Chipped corners
  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Burns from hot pans

What to look for in a quote

  • Who turns up on the day
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.

Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Repairs by material

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
