Worktop repair in Exfords Green

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Your questions about worktop repair in Exfords Green

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Exfords Green?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your SY5 postcode.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only the area we’re working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Solid surface

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

Quartz

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

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Re-oil timber worktops

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

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

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 doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Exfords Green. What changes the price is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Common problems we fix in Exfords Green

The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

People normally call us after spotting something like this:

  • A chipped edge
  • A heat mark or burn
  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • A damaged sink edge

  • How the colour is matched
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What prep work is covered
