About our worktop repair in Harpsden

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We work on laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble, and the jobs we see most are a chipped edge and gouges in the surface.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.

Do you need worktop repair in Harpsden?

Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, and that can make them swell.

People normally call us after spotting one of these:

  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What aftercare is recommended

10 questions to ask before booking

Landlord and trade work in Harpsden

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Harpsden questions

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.

  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

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Wipe up spills quickly

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

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

Repair or replace in Harpsden?

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. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Work done at your home or business

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
