Worktop repair for Downside homes

Worktop repair at your home in Downside

The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand so the repair blends in. If you’re dealing with damage around the sink cut-out and dents and gouges, we can generally put it right.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Surrey.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

What your worktop is made of matters

Granite and stone

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

Solid surface

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

What we are called out for in Downside

Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, and that’s where cracks frequently begin.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Chips near the sink
  • Gouges in the surface
  • Knife marks
  • Scorch marks from pans

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Who turns up on the day

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Clean spills straight away
  • Use a chopping board
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

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

Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

What affects the price in Downside

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we can’t put right

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

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Repairing versus replacing in Downside

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually.
