Worktop repair in Bowmore, done in place

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen. Most jobs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. We work on laminate, quartz and granite & marble, and people most frequently call us about a heat mark or burn and chips on edges and corners.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bowmore use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole worktop

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Bowmore, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a few hours.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

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

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
