Worktop repair in Drybridge, done in place

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. We build up the colour and flecks by hand. We are frequently asked to fix chips on edges and corners and gouges in the surface, on solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

Questions from Drybridge

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

How much does worktop repair cost in Drybridge?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Do you need worktop repair in Drybridge?

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives leave scratches, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

Most people contact us after spotting something like this:

  • A chipped edge
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Burns from hot pans
  • A damaged sink edge

What to look for in a quote

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Who will actually do the work

Our hiring checklist

How it works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  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. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Repairs by material

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Should you replace it?

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.
