What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Worktop repair in Eastwood without replacing anything

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We’re frequently asked to fix knife marks and a chipped edge, on laminate, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian).

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Repairing versus replacing in Eastwood

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Common questions in Eastwood

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Do not let water sit on joints

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

When we would advise against a repair

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • A top that moves on its units

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

10 questions to ask before booking

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
