When we would advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • No extra charge for your area

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Use a chopping board
  • Do not knock pans against the edge

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Do you need worktop repair in Higher Chisworth?

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives leave scratches, and heavy pans chip the edges.

Customers usually contact us about:

  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Knife marks
  • Chips caused during installation

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  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 recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Ensure the area is dry

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Higher Chisworth

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Higher Chisworth use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

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

Common questions in Higher Chisworth

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Do you come to Higher Chisworth?

We do. We send a technician to Higher Chisworth for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

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

Repairs by material

Granite and stone

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

Wood

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

How we price worktop repair

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

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
