About our worktop repair in Brattle

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the area around the damage covered. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. Common call-outs are for scratches and knife marks and chips near the sink, on solid surface (such as Corian), laminate and granite & marble.

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

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Ensure the area is dry

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Honest limits

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

Do you need worktop repair in Brattle?

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, and that can make them swell.

  • Knife marks

How to compare quotes

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Solid surface

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Brattle

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

FAQs for Brattle

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Brattle.

How much does worktop repair cost in Brattle?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Repairing versus replacing in Brattle

A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Work done at your home or business
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

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