Worktop repair near Hartwood

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

About our worktop repair in Hartwood

We repair worktops in place. Most repairs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. Whether it’s a damaged sink edge and knife marks, we can generally put it right, on quartz, granite & marble and laminate alike.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Failed support under the worktop

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Hartwood questions

Do I need to be at home?

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

Do I need to empty the worktop?

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

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Hartwood. Prices do not change with location.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Advice

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Re-oil timber worktops

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.

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

When to call us in Hartwood

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

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Dents and gouges
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • Chips caused during installation
  • Chipped corners

Comparing quotes

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What happens if they find more damage

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
