About our worktop repair in Hanley Castle

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We’re often asked to fix a chipped edge and a heat mark or burn, on laminate, quartz and solid surface (such as Corian).

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, and the work is guaranteed.

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

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

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

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.

Repairing versus replacing in Hanley Castle

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Clean spills right away
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
