How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Worktop repair at your home in Ellington

Burns from hot pans, chips on edges and scratches from knives are the most common worktop repairs. We repair them all in your kitchen. We’re often asked to fix a chipped quartz edge and cuts and scratches in the surface, across granite & marble, quartz and laminate.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • Something in shot to show the size

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is generally far better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Common problems we fix in Ellington

The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • Damage around the sink cut-out

What your quote should include

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What prep work is covered

Our hiring checklist

Questions from Ellington

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

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

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, filled and polished to match.

Do you cover Ellington?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Ellington. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

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

How much do I need to move?

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

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ellington as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Clean spills immediately
  • Use a chopping board

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
