Worktop repair near Greenhithe

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

About our worktop repair in Greenhithe

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Our technicians work on solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and granite & marble, and the jobs we see most are gouges in the surface and chips on edges and corners.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

When to call us in Greenhithe

Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, so cracks and chips often start there.

People typically call us after spotting something like this:

  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • A heat mark or burn
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Chips near the sink

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What protection goes down before work starts

10 questions to ask before booking

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Greenhithe

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Greenhithe as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Repair or replace in Greenhithe?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is typically far better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why book with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One visit for most repairs

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Clean spills right away

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

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

FAQs for Greenhithe

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

Are there extra charges for Greenhithe?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
