Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Keep a trivet by the hob

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

Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Our hiring checklist

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

Your questions about worktop repair in Great Witchingham

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Normally, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you come to Great Witchingham?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Great Witchingham for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Repairing versus replacing in Great Witchingham

A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
