How we handle worktop repair in Dinnet

Different worktops need different repairs: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. The goal is always a repair that blends in. We regularly repair laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and quartz, and common reasons people contact us are a dent from a dropped pan and burns from hot pans.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Dinnet questions

Can you match granite flecks?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do I have to be there?

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

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Wipe up spills quickly

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Advice

What your worktop is made of matters

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

Granite and stone

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

When to call us in Dinnet

Edges and corners chip most frequently, generally from pans, tins or dishes knocked against them.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Gouges in the surface
  • A heat mark or burn
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen

Before booking anyone

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

What affects the price in Dinnet

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the whole worktop

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Repair or replace: which is better?

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why us?

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
