Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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.

What your worktop is made of matters

Quartz

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

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Drighlington

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills right away, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

The process

When we visit, 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, depending on the damage. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Drighlington. What changes the price is:

  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Repair or replace in Drighlington?

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Work done at your home or business
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Read our pricing.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Laminate
  • Quartz
