Worktop repair in Freckenham, done in place

Each type of worktop needs a different approach: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. We always aim for a repair that blends in. We regularly repair quartz, solid wood and granite & marble, and common reasons people contact us are a chipped quartz edge and burns from hot pans.

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

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • A top that moves on its units

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Freckenham

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

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Laminate

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

How to compare quotes

How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Dry around the sink and joints

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills immediately, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
