Laminate, quartz, granite, solid surface and wooden worktops can all be repaired, with colour and pattern matched by hand. The worktop stays in place. Common call-outs are for gouges in the surface and a chipped edge, across laminate, quartz and solid surface (such as Corian).

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Questions from Harlyn

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Normally, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, so Harlyn is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We leave the room as we found it

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Harlyn. What changes the price is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes

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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Harlyn, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches

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

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

When to call us in Harlyn

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

Common reasons people in Harlyn contact us are:

  • Chipped corners
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Dents and gouges

What your quote should include

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How the colour is matched
