Worktop repair for Ham homes

Landlord and trade work in Ham

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Kent and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Worktop repair in Ham, done in place

Different worktops need different repairs: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. The goal is always a repair that blends in. We are often asked to fix gouges in the surface and snagging damage in a new kitchen, on quartz, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian).

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Use a chopping board
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Do not let water sit on joints

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills immediately, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

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

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. The room is left tidy.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Your questions about worktop repair in Ham

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you work in Ham?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Ham from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

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

Are there extra charges for Ham?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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.

Should you replace it?

A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
