Worktop repair at your home in High Cross

Different worktops need different repairs: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. The goal is always a repair that blends in. Common call-outs are for snagging damage in a new kitchen and cuts and scratches in the surface, in solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and solid wood.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Keep joints and edges dry

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

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

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We start by checking 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. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

What affects the price in High Cross

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the entire worktop

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repair or replace in High Cross?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
