How it works

From the moment we arrive, 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. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Related advice

Should you replace it?

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. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Colt's Hill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.

Do you need worktop repair in Colt's Hill?

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface

Our hiring checklist

Your questions about worktop repair in Colt's Hill

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

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

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

Are you accredited?

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

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Typically. A photo lets us check what’s possible.

How much do I need to move?

Only around the repair. You can typically still use the rest of the kitchen.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can you match granite flecks?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

What affects the price in Colt's Hill

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your TN12 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Colt's Hill

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches

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

Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
