Need worktop repair in Furneux Pelham?

Should you replace it?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • No need to remove anything
  • We leave the room as we found it

How we handle worktop repair in Furneux Pelham

Each type of worktop needs a different approach: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. The goal is always a repair that blends in. We work on solid wood, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian), and the jobs we see most are cuts and scratches in the surface and dents and gouges.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Different materials, different repairs

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done 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. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

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

Advice

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Clean spills straight away
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Use a chopping board

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

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

Landlord and trade work in Furneux Pelham

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Furneux Pelham use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
