Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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 your worktop is made of matters

Solid surface

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

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

What a repair can’t fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is usually far better value. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Most jobs done in one visit

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

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

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop

For a price in Bulverton, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

FAQs for Bulverton

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

Do you work in Bulverton?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Bulverton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Normally. A picture lets us check what’s possible.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Damage to a stone worktop

Before booking anyone

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

10 questions to ask before you book

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice

How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Keep wood oiled

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
