Worktop repair in Broad Street

Repair or replace in Broad Street?

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. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Do not let water sit on joints

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

Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Broad Street use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Advice

Different materials, different repairs

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
