Your questions about worktop repair in Chilton Foliat

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Chilton Foliat?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only around the repair. You can usually still use the rest of the kitchen.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Chilton Foliat. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

In most cases. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you.

Signs you need worktop repair in Chilton Foliat

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

Clients typically contact us about:

  • A chipped edge
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Damage to a stone worktop

Before booking anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Aftercare advice

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One visit for most repairs
  • No need to remove anything
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

See our full price list.

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

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

What we work on

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

Different materials, different repairs

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Use a chopping board
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

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

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
