Trusted worktop repair in Great Hockham

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  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.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

When to call us in Great Hockham

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • Chips near the sink
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • A heat mark or burn

What your quote should include

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How the colour is matched
  • How the room is protected while they work

How to compare quotes

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.

Solid surface

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

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
