Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Dry around the sink and joints

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills straight away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

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

Worktop repair at your home in Clayhithe

A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. If you’re dealing with chips caused during installation and a heat mark or burn, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

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 does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Why repair rather than replace?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Clayhithe use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Do you need worktop repair in Clayhithe?

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

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • A chipped edge
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
