How we handle worktop repair in Dry Drayton

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Our technicians work on granite & marble, quartz and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are snagging damage in a new kitchen and chipped corners.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Questions from Dry Drayton

How much does worktop repair cost in Dry Drayton?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your CB23 postcode.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only the area we are working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Different materials, different repairs

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Keep joints and edges dry

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

Do you need worktop repair in Dry Drayton?

The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A chipped edge
  • Knife marks
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Chips caused during installation

What to look for in a quote

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price covers travel
