Worktop repair near Hackness

Worktop repair at your home in Hackness

We repair worktops in place, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most repairs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. Our repair technicians work on granite & marble, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian), and people most often call us about chips caused during installation and burns from hot pans.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

What affects the price in Hackness

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

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

What we work on

  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Quartz
  • Solid wood
  • Laminate

When to call us in Hackness

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

People generally call us after spotting something like this:

  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Chipped corners
  • Scorch marks from pans

Questions from Hackness

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Hackness is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Hackness, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Clean spills straight away
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Re-oil timber worktops

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Repairs by material

Solid surface

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

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
