Worktop repair in Hendy

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

FAQs for Hendy

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can you match granite flecks?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, filled and polished to match.

Do you come to Hendy?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Hendy from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What we are called out for in Hendy

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Gouges in the surface
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How soon you can use it again
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

Repairing versus replacing in Hendy

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.

Laminate

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

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Use a chopping board
  • Do not knock pans against the edge

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
