How we handle worktop repair in Bretherton

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand. If you are dealing with burns from hot pans and snagging damage in a new kitchen, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  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

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

What a repair cannot fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • A top that moves on its units

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

Materials we repair

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

FAQs for Bretherton

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

How much do I need to move?

Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

How much does worktop repair cost in Bretherton?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Bretherton and the rest of Lancashire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What worktop repair costs

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

  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Repair or replace: which is better?

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. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
