Worktop repair for Crookedholm homes

Worktop repair in Crookedholm without replacing anything

A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the pattern. Our repair technicians work on laminate, solid wood and quartz, and people most frequently call us about burns from hot pans and cuts and scratches in the surface.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Crookedholm and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Crookedholm: your questions answered

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Keep joints and edges dry

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills right away, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Landlord and trade work in Crookedholm

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What a repair cannot fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Granite and stone

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

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

What we’re called out for in Crookedholm

The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Dents and gouges
  • Knife marks
  • A heat mark or burn

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
