Worktop Repair in Gunton
Our technicians come to Gunton for chip, burn and scratch repairs to kitchen and bathroom worktops. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Gouges in the surface
- Chips near the sink
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
Worktop repair in Gunton without replacing anything
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: 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. Common call-outs are for cuts and scratches in the surface and dents and gouges, across quartz, solid surface (such as Corian) and solid wood.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Gunton: your questions answered
Can you match granite flecks?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you cover the entire of Suffolk?
All of Suffolk, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How much do I need to move?
Only around the repair. You can generally still use the rest of the kitchen.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

What a repair can’t fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- Failed support under the worktop
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What affects the price in Gunton

- Unusual colours or finishes

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Suffolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
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.
Repairing versus replacing in Gunton
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Advice
Common problems we fix in Gunton
Most chips are on edges and corners, typically from pans, tins or dishes knocked against them.
The things clients normally mention when they call are:
- Damage from fitting or building work
- A chipped quartz edge
- Dents and gouges
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
Comparing quotes
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How soon you can use it again
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
