Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Clean spills immediately
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills right away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

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

Your questions about worktop repair in Gauxholme

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you come to Gauxholme?

We do. We send a technician to Gauxholme for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What does worktop repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gauxholme as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Water-swollen laminate

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
