Worktop repair for Dechmont homes

Worktop repair in Dechmont, done in place

We repair worktops in place, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most repairs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. Whether it’s burns from hot pans and a damaged sink edge, we can generally put it right, on granite & marble, quartz and solid wood alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

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

Granite and stone

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

Questions from Dechmont

Are there extra charges for Dechmont?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is there any odour?

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

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

See our prices page.

What we’re called out for in Dechmont

The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Burns from hot pans
  • Gouges in the surface
  • A damaged sink edge
  • Scratches and knife marks

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How to look after the finish
  • How the room is protected while they work

10 questions to ask before you book

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported

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

Materials we repair

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

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Landlord and trade work in Dechmont

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

For anyone letting property in or around Dechmont, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
