What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Different materials, different repairs

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Do not knock pans against the edge

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.

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

How to compare quotes

Your questions about worktop repair in Constantine

Can you match granite flecks?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

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

How do I book?

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

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Just near the damage. You can usually still use the rest of the kitchen.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What does worktop repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

What we can’t put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Constantine

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

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.
