Worktop repair near Garth

What your worktop is made of matters

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

Worktop repair in Garth, done in place

Pan burns, chipped edges and knife scratches make up most of our worktop work. All are repaired in place. We’re frequently asked to fix chips in quartz or granite and chips near the sink, on solid wood, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian).

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

Why Garth customers choose us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • No extra charge for your area
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

See our prices page.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Do not knock pans against the edge

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

Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Common questions in Garth

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How much does worktop repair cost in Garth?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • A top that moves on its units

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in Garth
