Worktop repair near Charvil

About our worktop repair in Charvil

Different worktops need different repairs: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. The goal is always a repair that blends in. Whether it’s cuts and scratches in the surface and a damaged sink edge, we can help.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the whole worktop

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Charvil, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we’re called out for in Charvil

The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • A heat mark or burn
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen

Before you book anyone

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Keep wood oiled

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills right away, and keep wooden tops oiled.

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

Different materials, different repairs

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

When can you do it?

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

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Charvil and the rest of Wokingham. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
