Do you need worktop repair in High Bray?

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Chipped corners
  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Damage around the sink cut-out

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

Granite and stone

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

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Clean spills straight away
  • Keep a trivet by the hob

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills straight away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in High Bray

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
