Worktop repair in Housel Bay

About our worktop repair in Housel Bay

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. We build up the colour and flecks by hand so the repair blends in. We regularly repair solid surface (such as Corian), laminate and quartz, and people most often call us about a heat mark or burn and dents and gouges.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

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

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your TR12 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

What we can’t put right

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

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Granite and stone

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

Quartz

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Common questions in Housel Bay

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Frequently, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.
