Worktop repair in Colton, done in place

The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand so the repair blends in. Typical jobs include chips in quartz or granite and chips caused during installation, in quartz, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Colton and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • 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 are your best protection.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

How it works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we go, we will explain 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. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Colton: your questions answered

Can you repair several things at once?

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

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Are there extra charges for Colton?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

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

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
