About our worktop repair in Brookmans Park

Each type of worktop needs a different approach: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. We always aim for a repair that blends in. We work on solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and quartz, and the jobs we see most are cuts and scratches in the surface and damage to a stone worktop.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Should you replace it?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Brookmans Park

  • Solid surface (such as Corian)

What your worktop is made of matters

Quartz

Granite and stone

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

  • Scratches and knife marks
  • A heat mark or burn

Questions to ask before booking

How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Clean spills straight away
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

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 happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  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.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice

Brookmans Park: your questions answered

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
