About our worktop repair in Elford Heath

You don’t need a new worktop because of one mark. We fill and refinish the damage to blend into the surface around it. We regularly repair solid wood, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian), and people most often call us about a damaged sink edge and a heat mark or burn.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement 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. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

Why us?

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Wipe up spills quickly

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

When to call us in Elford Heath

Edges and corners chip most often, usually from pans, tins or dishes knocked against them.

The things clients usually mention when they call include:

  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Chipped corners
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How to care for the finish
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in Elford Heath

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Elford Heath as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Questions from Elford Heath

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Usually, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
