How we handle worktop repair in Buckland

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Our technicians work on laminate, solid wood and granite & marble, and people most frequently call us about chips on edges and corners and dents and gouges.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Buckland questions

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Buckland.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Why repair rather than replace?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Buckland. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • No need to remove anything

Read our prices page.

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Clean spills straight away

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

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.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Buckland. The price comes down to:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Water-swollen laminate

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price
