What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

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

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Failed support under the worktop

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Birchover

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

Common problems we fix in Birchover

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, which can cause swelling.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Chips near the sink
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • A heat mark or burn
  • Damage from fitting or building work

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What prep work is covered
  • How long it needs to cure

Choosing a repair company

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Use a chopping board
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Birchover. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Should you replace it?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Our worktop repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Different materials, different repairs

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
