About our worktop repair in Bow Common

A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. Our technicians work on quartz, laminate and granite & marble, and the jobs we see most are damage to a stone worktop and damage from fitting or building work.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Signs you need worktop repair in Bow Common

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • Chipped corners
  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Scratches and knife marks

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Advice

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Keep joints and edges dry

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Bow Common: your questions answered

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.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you cover Bow Common?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Bow Common for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Granite and stone

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

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
