About our worktop repair in Chilson

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Typical jobs include scorch marks from pans and damage from fitting or building work, on solid wood, quartz and granite & marble.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Landlord and trade work in Chilson

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we can’t put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 often lifts.

Common questions in Chilson

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills right away, and keep wooden tops oiled.

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

Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

Wood

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

How we price worktop repair

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

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can give you a fixed quote.

What we’re called out for in Chilson

Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans scorch, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Gouges in the surface
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Chips near the sink

Before you book anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How to care for the finish
  • How changes to the job are handled

How to compare quotes

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price
