Trusted worktop repair in Heavitree

Worktop repair in Heavitree without replacing anything

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We regularly repair solid wood, granite & marble and laminate, and people most often call us about a chipped quartz edge and dents and gouges.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  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. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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.

Different materials, different repairs

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Wood

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

What affects the price in Heavitree

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Heavitree. The price reflects:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Heavitree, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Heavitree. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

  • No need to remove anything

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
