Need worktop repair in Eye?

Why repair rather than replace?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, 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’ll 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. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

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.

FAQs for Eye

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you work in Eye?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Eye from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire worktop and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

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

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

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

Do the materials smell?

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Solid surface

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

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Wipe up spills quickly

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
