Worktop repair in Holcot without replacing anything

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Whether it’s cuts and scratches in the surface and scorch marks from pans, we can help, whatever the material.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Northamptonshire.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

10 questions to ask before you book

When we’d advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Failed support under the worktop

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Holcot

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Holcot

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the whole worktop

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Clean spills right away
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Don’t let water sit on joints

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Different materials, different repairs

Granite and stone

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

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Your questions about worktop repair in Holcot

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Do you come to Holcot?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Holcot for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

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

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
