Need worktop repair in Buckerell?

Should you replace it?

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

  • Work done at your home or business
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Worktop repair in Buckerell without replacing anything

A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. Our repair technicians work on solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and quartz, and common reasons people contact us are chips on edges and corners and damage to a stone worktop.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Failed support under the worktop

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Buckerell

If you manage property in Buckerell, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

FAQs for Buckerell

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

What does worktop repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Do you cover the whole of Devon?

All of Devon, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Is there a guarantee?

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

When to call us in Buckerell

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives leave scratches, and heavy pans chip the edges.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Aftercare advice

10 questions to ask before booking

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Dry around the sink and joints

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
