Worktop repair for Burnrigg homes

Common questions in Burnrigg

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.

What does worktop repair cost?

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

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Generally, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

About our worktop repair in Burnrigg

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. We are frequently asked to fix damage to a stone worktop and chipped corners, on solid surface (such as Corian), quartz and solid wood.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Should you replace it?

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. A repair is matched to what you have now. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Why Burnrigg customers choose us

  • No need to remove anything
  • No extra charge for your area
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Work done at your home or business

Landlord and trade work in Burnrigg

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Don’t let water sit on joints

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

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

How we price worktop repair

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

  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Repairs by material

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

When to call us in Burnrigg

Most chips are on edges and corners, frequently when something heavy catches the edge.

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

  • Dents and gouges
  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Chips near the sink
  • A chipped edge

Questions to ask before booking
