Worktop repair in Fish Island, done in place

You don’t need a new worktop because of one mark. We fill and refinish the damage to blend into the surface around it. Our repair technicians work on solid surface (such as Corian), laminate and quartz, and the jobs we see most are a dent from a dropped pan and snagging damage in a new kitchen.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Do not knock pans against the edge

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Make sure the area is dry

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Common questions in Fish Island

What happens after I send photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only the area we’re working on. The rest is covered and protected.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Typically. Send us a photo and we will tell you what’s possible.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Greater London.

Why repair rather than replace?

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

  • Rooms protected and left tidy

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What we are called out for in Fish Island

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 more slowly, from knives and grit.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Scorch marks from pans
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Dents and gouges

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Aftercare advice
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
