Worktop repair near Grinton

What happens on the day

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 we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Worktop repair in Grinton, done in place

The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. We build up the colour and flecks by hand so the repair blends in. Typical jobs include a chipped edge and a heat mark or burn, across granite & marble, solid wood and quartz.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What we are called out for in Grinton

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, and that can make them swell.

People normally call us after spotting one of these:

  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Gouges in the surface

Before booking anyone

  • Who turns up on the day

  • What happens if they find more damage

How to compare quotes

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Failed support under the worktop

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

Materials we work on in Grinton

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

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Should you replace it?

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 keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t 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.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What worktop repair costs

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • The material

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the whole worktop

Most customers in Grinton get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.
