Wooden worktop being repaired in a customer’s kitchen

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

East Hagbourne questions

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire worktop and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Do you cover the whole of Oxfordshire?

The whole UK, including all of Oxfordshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in

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

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

Do you need worktop repair in East Hagbourne?

Most chips are on edges and corners, generally from pans, tins or dishes knocked against them.

The things customers usually mention when they call include:

  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • A heat mark or burn
  • Gouges in the surface
  • Damage to a stone worktop

Before you book anyone

  • How your room will be protected
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who turns up on the day

10 questions to ask before you book

What a repair cannot fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairs by material

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

How we price worktop repair

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in East Hagbourne, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
