How we handle worktop repair in Blackhall Rocks

You don’t need a new worktop because of one mark. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the pattern. Whether it’s scratches and knife marks and chips on edges and corners, we can normally put it right, on granite & marble, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian) alike.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What we can’t put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Blackhall Rocks

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

For anyone letting property in or around Blackhall Rocks, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  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 match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can give you a fixed price.

Advice

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Clean spills straight away
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills right away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.

Common problems we fix in Blackhall Rocks

Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, which can cause swelling.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Knife marks
  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Chipped corners
  • Chips near the sink

Common questions in Blackhall Rocks

Is my repair covered?

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

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

In most cases. A picture lets us check.

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

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Blackhall Rocks and the rest of County Durham. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you work in Blackhall Rocks?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Blackhall Rocks for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Blackhall Rocks. The price comes down to:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Blackhall Rocks. 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

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • The material, if you know it

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repairs by material

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
