Worktop repair for Carlton homes

About our worktop repair in Carlton

We repair worktops in place. Most jobs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. If you are dealing with damage to a stone worktop and damage from fitting or building work, we can typically put it right, on solid wood, quartz and granite & marble alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  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. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rental properties take more wear, 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.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

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.

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Dry around the sink and joints

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Carlton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

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

Materials we repair

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

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

When to call us in Carlton

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives cut, and heavy pans chip the edges.
