How we handle worktop repair in Henbury

A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. Our technicians work on quartz, laminate and granite & marble, and people most often call us about chipped corners and snagging damage in a new kitchen.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

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

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Questions from Henbury

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Henbury.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

In most cases. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Henbury, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Repairs by material

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

Granite and stone

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

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Henbury

Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, and that is where cracks often begin.

People generally call us when they notice one of these:

  • Chipped corners
  • Knife marks
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Damage around the sink cut-out

Before you book anyone

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How the room is protected while they work

Our hiring checklist

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
