How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

About our worktop repair in Catherine-de-Barnes

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Whether it’s cuts and scratches in the surface and scorch marks from pans, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Common questions in Catherine-de-Barnes

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How much do I need to move?

Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

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

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Do you need worktop repair in Catherine-de-Barnes?

Sink and hob cut-outs are weak points, and that’s where cracks frequently begin.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • A heat mark or burn
  • Damage to a stone worktop

Questions to ask before booking

  • How soon you can use it again
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Aftercare advice
  • What preparation is included

How to compare quotes

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

  • One visit for most repairs
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
