Trusted worktop repair in Fenstanton

Worktop repair in Fenstanton without replacing anything

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We’re frequently asked to fix chips on edges and corners and damage around the sink cut-out, on granite & marble, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian).

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.

Solid surface

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Failed support under the worktop

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

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Dry around the sink and joints

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.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Preparing for the visit

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
