DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Worktop repair at your home in Chilton

A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. We fill and refinish the damage to blend into the surface around it. We are often asked to fix dents and gouges and cuts and scratches in the surface, across solid wood, quartz and laminate.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Chilton

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chilton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Repair or replace: which is better?

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. A repair is matched to what you have now. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

What your worktop is made of matters

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

Laminate

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