Repairs by material

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

The process

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Wipe up spills quickly

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

What affects the price in Chorleywood

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

When we’d advise against a repair

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 swollen by water from underneath

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When to call us in Chorleywood

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives cut, and heavy pans chip the edges.

Clients typically contact us about:

  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Damage around the sink cut-out

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Aftercare advice
  • How the colour is matched
