About our worktop repair in Burwash Common

Different worktops need different repairs: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. The goal is always a repair that blends in. Whether it’s knife marks and dents and gouges, we can generally put it right, on quartz, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian) alike.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Never put hot pans down directly

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

Work for landlords and builders

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

If you manage property in Burwash Common, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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

Signs you need worktop repair in Burwash Common

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 more slowly, from knives and grit.

People usually call us after spotting something like this:

  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Chipped corners
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Dents and gouges

Questions to ask before booking

  • What prep work is covered
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether they match the colour on site

How to compare quotes

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Same prices wherever you are

Common questions in Burwash Common

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.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

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.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Quartz

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

Solid surface

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