Trusted worktop repair in Hill Green

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

About our worktop repair in Hill Green

We repair chips, burns and scratches in laminate, stone, quartz, solid surface and wooden worktops, matching the colour and pattern by hand. The worktop stays in place. We’re often asked to fix a dent from a dropped pan and scorch marks from pans, in quartz, laminate and solid wood.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Your questions about worktop repair in Hill Green

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you cover Hill Green?

We do. We send a technician to Hill Green for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only the area we’re working on. The rest is covered and protected.

When can you do it?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Signs you need worktop repair in Hill Green

Most chips are on edges and corners, frequently when something heavy catches the edge.

  • A damaged sink edge
  • Chipped corners
  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Dents and gouges

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For a price in Hill Green, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Different materials, different repairs

Quartz

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

Granite and stone

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

How to look after the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Use a chopping board
  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Keep a trivet by the hob

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
