Worktop repair near Dibden

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For anyone letting property in or around Dibden, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

How we handle worktop repair in Dibden

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Whether it’s gouges in the surface and chips on edges and corners, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage

Your questions about worktop repair in Dibden

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, matched and polished.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only around the repair. You can generally still use the rest of the kitchen.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Dibden and the rest of Hampshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Should you replace it?

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Everything repaired in place

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Keep joints and edges dry

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Granite and stone

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Common problems we fix in Dibden

Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans leave burns, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

People generally call us after spotting one of these:

  • Dents and gouges
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Damage from fitting or building work

  • Aftercare advice

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
