Different materials, different repairs

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.

Worktop repair in Burthorpe without replacing anything

We repair worktops in place, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most jobs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. Common call-outs are for scorch marks from pans and dents and gouges, in quartz, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian).

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Burthorpe as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, 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 morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Repair or replace in Burthorpe?

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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 us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Common problems we fix in Burthorpe

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

Look out for these signs:

  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Chips near the sink

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Burthorpe. What changes the price is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work

Set against the cost of replacement, 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

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash

For a price in Burthorpe, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

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