How we handle worktop repair in Chingford Hatch

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We work on quartz, granite & marble and laminate, and common reasons people contact us are chips caused during installation and gouges in the surface.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Different materials, different repairs

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

When to call us in Chingford Hatch

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, which can cause swelling.

Most people contact us when they notice something like this:

  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Chipped corners
  • Chips caused during installation
  • Dents and gouges

Comparing quotes

  • Aftercare advice

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace: which is better?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Everything repaired in place
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

See our full price list.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Use a chopping board

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.

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

Chingford Hatch: your questions answered

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Normally. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you what’s possible.

The process

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
