Worktop repair in Carter's Clay, done in place

A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. We fill and refinish the damage to blend into the surface around it. If you’re dealing with scratches and knife marks and a damaged sink edge, we can help, whatever the material.

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

Wooden worktop being repaired in a customer’s kitchen

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Do you need worktop repair in Carter's Clay?

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, and that can make them swell.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Carter's Clay. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • The material, if you know it

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

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.

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

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
