Worktop repair near Great Budworth

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

About our worktop repair in Great Budworth

Burns from hot pans, chips on edges and scratches from knives make up most of our worktop work. We repair them all in your kitchen. We’re often asked to fix a dent from a dropped pan and chips on edges and corners, across laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and solid wood.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Keep joints and edges dry

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, as water can get in and cause swelling.

What affects the price in Great Budworth

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A picture taken from further back

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Why repair rather than replace?

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What we’re called out for in Great Budworth

The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Dents and gouges
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Chips on edges and corners

Questions to ask before booking

  • How to look after the finish
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What prep work is covered

Choosing a repair company

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • A top that moves on its units

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
