Worktop repair for Haccombe homes

Worktop repair in Haccombe without replacing anything

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. We are often asked to fix scratches and knife marks and damage around the sink cut-out, on quartz, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Related advice

Haccombe: your questions answered

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are there extra charges for Haccombe?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes, frequently. We match the colour and polish the repair.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

What you get with us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Read our prices page.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

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.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

When to call us in Haccombe

Edges and corners chip most frequently, frequently when something heavy catches the edge.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chipped corners
  • A heat mark or burn
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Chips near the sink

What to look for in a quote

  • How long it needs to cure
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What prep work is covered
  • If travel is included in the price
