Trusted worktop repair in Coffinswell

Why repair rather than replace?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Before and after: damaged granite tiles repaired in place

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  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. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Gouges in the surface

Our hiring checklist

When a repair isn’t the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Water-swollen laminate

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Your questions about worktop repair in Coffinswell

Do you cover the whole of Devon?

Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can tenants book a repair?

Do you come to Coffinswell?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Coffinswell from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Different materials, different repairs

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Granite and stone

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

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches

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

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
