Different materials, different repairs

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. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Worktop repair in Bush Fair without replacing anything

You do not need a new worktop because of one mark. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. If you are dealing with scratches and knife marks and chips caused during installation, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Bush Fair. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Same prices wherever you are

FAQs for Bush Fair

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

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

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Do you cover the whole of Essex?

Everywhere in the UK, Bush Fair included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
