About our worktop repair in Blue Anchor

Each type of worktop needs a different approach: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. We always aim for a repair that blends in. We’re often asked to fix damage from fitting or building work and damage around the sink cut-out, in quartz, granite & marble and solid wood.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Somerset.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Do you need worktop repair in Blue Anchor?

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

Look out for these signs:

  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen

Questions to ask before you book

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Aftercare advice
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How your room will be protected

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Questions from Blue Anchor

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes, frequently. We match the colour and polish the repair.

Do I have to be there?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Do not knock pans against the edge

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

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

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
