Worktop repair in Blackwater

How we handle worktop repair in Blackwater

Pan burns, chipped edges and knife scratches make up most of our worktop work. All are repaired in place. We are often asked to fix gouges in the surface and cuts and scratches in the surface, across laminate, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian).

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach

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

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Blackwater, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Repairs by material

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.

How much do I need to move?

Only the area we are working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
