Worktop repair for Hinstock homes

Worktop repair in Hinstock without replacing anything

Burns from hot pans, chips on edges and scratches from knives are the most common worktop repairs. We repair them all in your kitchen. If you’re dealing with damage from fitting or building work and knife marks, we can generally put it right, on quartz, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian) alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge

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

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

Different materials, different repairs

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Landlord and trade work in Hinstock

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hinstock use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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