The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Your questions about worktop repair in Hogpits Bottom

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only around the repair. You can generally still use the rest of the kitchen.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Hogpits Bottom included. Travel is included in the price.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Clean spills straight away
  • Use a chopping board
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Never put hot pans down directly

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.

Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • A top that moves on its units

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Do you need worktop repair in Hogpits Bottom?

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, which can cause swelling.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Knife marks
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Damage to a stone worktop
