Worktop repair in Ham, done in place

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most jobs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. Whether it’s snagging damage in a new kitchen and damage to a stone worktop, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Different materials, different repairs

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Quartz

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

Ham questions

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What does worktop repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Are there extra charges for Ham?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.

Do you cover the entire of Gloucestershire?

We cover the entire UK, including Ham and the rest of Gloucestershire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Why repair rather than replace?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • One visit for most repairs
  • No need to remove anything
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Read our prices page.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Never put hot pans down directly

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

When to call us in Ham

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Chips caused during installation
  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • A damaged sink edge

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Aftercare advice

How it works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your GL13 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Ham, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
