Book worktop repair in Hunger Hill

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  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 recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How we handle worktop repair in Hunger Hill

We repair chips, burns and scratches in laminate, stone, quartz, solid surface and wooden worktops, with colour and pattern matched by hand. Nothing is taken out. We work on quartz, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian), and the jobs we see most are snagging damage in a new kitchen and dents and gouges.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Hunger Hill questions

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Just near the damage. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, matched and polished.

Do you cover Hunger Hill?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Hunger Hill from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Honest limits

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

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Hunger Hill

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Most jobs done in one visit

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

Granite and stone

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

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

How to compare quotes

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
