Worktop repair in Great Tew without replacing anything

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. We build up the colour and flecks by hand. Our technicians work on quartz, granite & marble and laminate, and common reasons people contact us are chips on edges and corners and snagging damage in a new kitchen.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

Common questions in Great Tew

Do I need to empty the worktop?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Do you cover the entire of Oxfordshire?

The entire UK, including all of Oxfordshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

Do you come to Great Tew?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

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

Do you need worktop repair in Great Tew?

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

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A damaged sink edge
  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • A chipped edge

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  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 match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Landlord and trade work in Great Tew

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Great Tew use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of

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

How to get a fixed quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

What a repair can’t fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
