Worktop repair near Dunnington

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Worktop repair in Dunnington without replacing anything

Different worktops need different repairs: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. We always aim for a repair that blends in. Typical jobs include chips in quartz or granite and damage from fitting or building work, in laminate, solid wood and granite & marble.

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

What affects the price in Dunnington

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

FAQs for Dunnington

Do you come to Dunnington?

We do. We send a technician to Dunnington for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Oil wooden tops regularly

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

When we would advise against a repair

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

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in Dunnington

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

The process

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
