Your questions about worktop repair in Duns Tew

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Often, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

What information do you need?

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you cover Duns Tew?

We do. Technicians travel to Duns Tew from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

How soon can you come?

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

Just near the damage. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Worktop repair in Duns Tew without replacing anything

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand so the repair blends in. If you’re dealing with damage around the sink cut-out and a chipped edge, we can normally put it right.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How it works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge

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

Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

When we’d advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz

Materials we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

Wood

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

What we are called out for in Duns Tew
