Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 will not last.

How we handle worktop repair in Gildingwells

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We work on solid wood, granite & marble and laminate, and the jobs we see most are a chipped edge and knife marks.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Gildingwells questions

Do you cover Gildingwells?

We do. Technicians travel to Gildingwells from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

How much do I need to move?

Only the area we’re working on. The rest is covered and protected.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gildingwells use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

What affects the price in Gildingwells

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Clean spills right away
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Repairs by material

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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