About our worktop repair in Downholland Cross

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. We build up the colour and flecks by hand. Our technicians work on solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble, and common reasons people get in touch are a damaged sink edge and chips on edges and corners.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Use a chopping board
  • Do not knock pans against the edge

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

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

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know about parking or access

Advice

Your questions about worktop repair in Downholland Cross

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Lancashire.

How much do I need to move?

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

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Downholland Cross. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do the materials smell?

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

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

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Is it messy?

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

Repairs by material

Solid surface

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

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

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

Surfaces we repair

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

What worktop repair costs
