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

Is it messy?

About our worktop repair in Botany Bay

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Typical jobs include chips near the sink and damage to a stone worktop, in granite & marble, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian).

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can

What we can’t put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Dry around the sink and joints

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

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

When to call us in Botany Bay

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

Common reasons people in Botany Bay contact us are:

  • Knife marks
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Chips caused during installation
  • Chips near the sink

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Aftercare advice
  • How the colour is matched
  • What preparation is included

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

What affects the price in Botany Bay

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

For a price in Botany Bay, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
