Trusted worktop repair in Drinkstone Green

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Clean spills immediately
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

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.

About our worktop repair in Drinkstone Green

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 are often asked to fix knife marks and chips on edges and corners, in solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and laminate.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will 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. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Should you replace it?

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

How to compare quotes

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire worktop

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Drinkstone Green questions

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Will it make a mess?

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

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
