Worktop repair for Boxworth homes

Worktop repair at your home in Boxworth

A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the pattern. Typical jobs include chips caused during installation and a chipped quartz edge, on solid wood, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian).

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Boxworth. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.

When to call us in Boxworth

Sink and hob cut-outs are weak points, so cracks and chips frequently start there.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Dents and gouges
  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • A damaged sink edge

What to look for in a quote

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Choosing a repair company

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Use a chopping board
  • Keep wood oiled

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

Different materials, different repairs

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  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

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
