Worktop repair for Bradford Abbas homes

Worktop repair in Bradford Abbas without replacing anything

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand so the repair blends in. Our technicians work on solid wood, laminate and quartz, and common reasons people get in touch are snagging damage in a new kitchen and a chipped edge.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dorset.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Clean spills immediately
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills straight away, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Bradford Abbas, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Different materials, different repairs

Granite and stone

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

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.

Do you cover the entire of Dorset?

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  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. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Before we arrive

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

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Bradford Abbas. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
