Worktop repair for Botley homes

How we handle worktop repair in Botley

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. We build up the colour and flecks by hand. We are often asked to fix cuts and scratches in the surface and dents and gouges, across quartz, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian).

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairs by material

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

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

Repair or replace in Botley?

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why Botley clients choose us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • One price list for the whole UK

Landlord and trade work in Botley

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

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

Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Botley, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Botley questions

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

In most cases. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

Do I have to be there?

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

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Do you cover the entire of Hampshire?

We cover the whole UK, including Botley and the rest of Hampshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

What we are called out for in Botley

Sink and hob cut-outs are weak points, and that is where cracks often begin.

People typically call us after spotting one of these:

  • Gouges in the surface
  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Chipped corners

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the colour is matched
  • When it can be used again
  • If travel is included in the price
