Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Laminate, quartz, granite, solid surface and wooden worktops can all be repaired, with colour and pattern matched by hand. The worktop stays in place.

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

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

Solid surface

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

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

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

What we work on

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

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bow as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Most clients in Bow get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Bow: your questions answered

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Bow. Our prices are the same everywhere.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only the area we are working on. The rest is covered and protected.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
