Worktop repair near Great Finborough

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How we handle worktop repair in Great Finborough

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Whether it’s damage around the sink cut-out and chips caused during installation, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Choosing a repair company

When we would advise against a repair

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

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • A top that moves on its units

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

  • Solid wood
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)

  • Quartz

Common questions in Great Finborough

Do you come to Great Finborough?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Great Finborough. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes, frequently. We match the colour and polish the repair.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Just near the damage. You can usually still use the rest of the kitchen.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Can pets and children be at home?

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.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Repairing versus replacing in Great Finborough

A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Everything repaired in place

See our pricing.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Solid surface

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

Landlord and trade work in Great Finborough

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
