About our worktop repair in Brinian

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand. We are often asked to fix a chipped quartz edge and burns from hot pans, across solid surface (such as Corian), quartz and laminate.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Repairing versus replacing in Brinian

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why Brinian customers choose us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Everything repaired in place
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Take a look at our pricing.

What affects the price in Brinian

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Brinian. What changes the price is:

  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A photo taken from further back

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

When to call us in Brinian

People generally call us when they notice something like this:

  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • Chips in quartz or granite

What your quote should include

  • Aftercare advice
  • What prep work is covered
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How long it needs to cure

How to compare quotes

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Use a chopping board
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Re-oil timber worktops

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

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

Brinian questions

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Are there extra charges for Brinian?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole worktop and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

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

Surfaces we repair

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

How it works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
