Worktop repair near Carleton Rode

Worktop repair in Carleton Rode, done in place

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. We build up the colour and flecks by hand so the repair blends in. We regularly repair solid surface (such as Corian), quartz and laminate, and people most frequently call us about damage from fitting or building work and a dent from a dropped pan.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Norfolk.

When a repair is not the answer

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Water-swollen laminate

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Read our prices page.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Aftercare tips

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

  • Use a chopping board
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Clean spills right away
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills straight away, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

Different materials, different repairs

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
