Worktop repair for Densole homes

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Worktop repair in Densole without replacing anything

Burns from hot pans, chips on edges and scratches from knives are the most common worktop repairs. All are repaired in place. Whether it’s a heat mark or burn and damage around the sink cut-out, we can help.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Should you replace it?

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. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

FAQs for Densole

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Do you cover Densole?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Densole for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only the area we’re working on. The rest is covered and protected.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

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

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

Most customers in Densole get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, it’s worth having it done properly.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match

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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • Natural light rather than flash

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Densole, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • 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 booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Granite and stone

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

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

Common problems we fix in Densole

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

Clients typically contact us about:

  • Knife marks
  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • A chipped edge
