Worktop repair in Colgrain, done in place

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Common call-outs are for knife marks and damage from fitting or building work, across solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and quartz.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Common problems we fix in Colgrain

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

People normally call us when they notice one of these:

  • Chipped corners
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • A heat mark or burn
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What prep work is covered
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

How to compare quotes

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

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

Common questions in Colgrain

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire worktop and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.

Do you work in Colgrain?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Colgrain. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only the area we’re working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Colgrain. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

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

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Ensure the area is dry

How to get a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

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

Solid surface

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
