Worktop repair at your home in Chapel Row

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand so the repair blends in. We work on quartz, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian), and the jobs we see most are a heat mark or burn and chips caused during installation.

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.

FAQs for Chapel Row

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Do you come to Chapel Row?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Chapel Row from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

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

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Why repair rather than replace?

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. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Aftercare tips

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

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

When to call us in Chapel Row

Most chips are on edges and corners, often when something heavy catches the edge.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Chips near the sink
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Gouges in the surface

Before booking anyone

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How to look after the finish
  • What prep work is covered

Landlord and trade work in Chapel Row

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chapel Row use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

If you manage property in Chapel Row, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Different materials, different repairs

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
