Worktop repair at your home in Chawton

Each type of worktop needs a different approach: 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 a dent from a dropped pan and snagging damage in a new kitchen, we can help, on laminate, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian) alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What a repair cannot fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Failed support under the worktop

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What we are called out for in Chawton

Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, and that’s where cracks frequently begin.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • A chipped edge
  • Chips near the sink
  • Scratches and knife marks

What your quote should include

  • What prep work is covered
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Your questions about worktop repair in Chawton

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Are you accredited?

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

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Chawton. The price comes down to:

  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once

Instead of hourly rates, 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 pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Repairs by material

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.

Wood

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

How it works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Dry around the sink and joints

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

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