Worktop repair at your home in Ham

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. The goal is always a repair that blends in. Whether it’s a dent from a dropped pan and chipped corners, we can help, on solid surface (such as Corian), laminate and quartz alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • A damaged sink edge

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

What affects the price in Ham

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Keep wood oiled

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills immediately, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Repairing versus replacing in Ham

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
