Worktop repair in Great Holcombe, done in place

Different worktops need different repairs: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. We always aim for a repair that blends in. Typical jobs include scratches and knife marks and chips near the sink, on solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble.

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Questions from Great Holcombe

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Do you come to Great Holcombe?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Great Holcombe. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

In most cases. Send us a photo and we will tell you.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

How to care for the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Do not knock pans against the edge

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

Granite and stone

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