How we handle worktop repair in Great Hautbois

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. We build up the colour and flecks by hand so the repair blends in. Common call-outs are for burns from hot pans and a chipped quartz edge, on solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and laminate.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What your worktop is made of matters

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

Your questions about worktop repair in Great Hautbois

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Usually. Send us a photo and we will tell you.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you work in Great Hautbois?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Great Hautbois. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Should you replace it?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Work for landlords and builders

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

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit

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

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Do you need worktop repair in Great Hautbois?

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

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • Gouges in the surface
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Chips on edges and corners

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What aftercare is recommended

Choosing a repair company

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage

Get a quote

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
