Worktop repair in Chalton

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Wipe up spills quickly

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

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

About our worktop repair in Chalton

A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. We fill and refinish the damage to blend into the surface around it. We regularly repair laminate, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian), and the jobs we see most are cuts and scratches in the surface and damage to a stone worktop.

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

Common questions in Chalton

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, filled and polished to match.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, 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 trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

10 questions to ask before you book

What affects the price in Chalton

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • A top that moves on its units

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairs by material

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Make sure the area is dry

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
