Worktop repair in Duckmanton, done in place

Burns from hot pans, chips on edges and scratches from knives make up most of our worktop work. We repair them all in your kitchen. We work on solid wood, laminate and granite & marble, and the jobs we see most are gouges in the surface and damage around the sink cut-out.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Before and after: damaged granite tiles repaired in place

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  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. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your S44 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • No need to remove anything
  • Colour-matched on site

See our pricing.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Oil wooden tops regularly

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

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

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

What your worktop is made of matters

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

In most cases. A photo lets us check what’s possible.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
