Book worktop repair in Birds Edge

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Worktop repair in Birds Edge, done in place

Laminate, quartz, granite, solid surface and wooden worktops can all be repaired, matching the colour and pattern by hand. Nothing is taken out. We work on laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and quartz, and the jobs we see most are chips on edges and corners and chips near the sink.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the area is dry

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Birds Edge. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
