Worktop repair near Castle Green

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

About our worktop repair in Castle Green

We repair worktops in place, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most repairs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. Common call-outs are for a heat mark or burn and a damaged sink edge, on solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and quartz.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Castle Green and across Greater London.

What worktop repair costs

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

  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • Natural light rather than flash

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • We leave the room as we found it

Repairs by material

Granite and stone

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

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Castle Green questions

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Normally, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Castle Green.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the area is dry

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
