Worktop repair in Harlaston

What your worktop is made of matters

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

About our worktop repair in Harlaston

A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the pattern. We work on solid surface (such as Corian), laminate and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are damage around the sink cut-out and chips on edges and corners.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Wipe up spills quickly

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, 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.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Staffordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Repairing versus replacing in Harlaston

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Common questions in Harlaston

How soon can you come?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Just near the damage. You can normally still use the rest of the kitchen.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Do you need worktop repair in Harlaston?

Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans leave burns, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Gouges in the surface
  • A heat mark or burn
  • A damaged sink edge
  • Chips on edges and corners

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
