Worktop repair in Cheveley without replacing anything

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Typical jobs include a dent from a dropped pan and chipped corners, on solid surface (such as Corian), laminate and solid wood.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Cheveley questions

Can you quote from photos?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire worktop and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Different materials, different repairs

Wood

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

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Failed support under the worktop

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cheveley

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Work done at your home or business

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Make sure the area is dry

How to get a price

If you’re in Cheveley and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Clean spills right away
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills straight away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
