Worktop repair in Godinton

Can I fix it myself?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Worktop repair in Godinton without replacing anything

We repair worktops in place, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most jobs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. We work on solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble, and people most often call us about chips in quartz or granite and burns from hot pans.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Clean spills straight away
  • Oil wooden tops regularly

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

10 questions to ask before booking

What affects the price in Godinton

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Godinton. What changes the price is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear the area around the damage

Questions from Godinton

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Kent.

Do you come to Godinton?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Godinton. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Repair or replace: which is better?

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. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.
