Your questions about worktop repair in Crockerhill

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Which areas do you work in?

All of West Sussex, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

When to call us in Crockerhill

Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans scorch, knives leave scratches, and heavy pans chip the edges.

Most people contact us after spotting something like this:

  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Knife marks
  • Damage around the sink cut-out

Comparing quotes

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  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. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your PO18 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Laminate

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

Granite and stone

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

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A top that moves on its units

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

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 usually cheaper.
