Worktop repair in Hillside

About our worktop repair in Hillside

Each type of worktop needs a different approach: 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. We regularly repair laminate, quartz and granite & marble, and common reasons people get in touch are chips in quartz or granite and a dent from a dropped pan.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Hillside and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Hillside. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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

What a repair cannot fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace in Hillside?

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
