Worktop repair for Charlestown homes

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.

  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. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Clean spills right away
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Keep wood oiled

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

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.

Granite and stone

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

Repairing versus replacing in Charlestown

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one 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. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
