About our worktop repair in Five Ashes

We repair chips, burns and scratches in laminate, stone, quartz, solid surface and wooden worktops, matching the colour and pattern by hand. The worktop stays in place. We regularly repair laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and solid wood, and people most often call us about chips near the sink and chips in quartz or granite.

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Related advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.

Granite and stone

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Re-oil timber worktops

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills immediately, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.

Landlord and trade work in Five Ashes

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in East Sussex and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Why repair rather than replace?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We leave the room as we found it

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
