Worktop repair near Hycemoor

What we are called out for in Hycemoor

Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, and that’s where cracks frequently begin.

People usually call us after spotting something like this:

  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • A chipped edge
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Chips near the sink

10 questions to ask before you book

Worktop repair in Hycemoor, done in place

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 are frequently asked to fix damage from fitting or building work and dents and gouges, across granite & marble, solid surface (such as Corian) and solid wood.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Hycemoor and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported

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

Materials we work on in Hycemoor

  • Granite & marble
  • Quartz

  • Laminate
  • Solid wood

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Hycemoor: your questions answered

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Hycemoor included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Usually, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Cumbria.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, filled and polished to match.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Landlord and trade work in Hycemoor

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

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.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any details about the material
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your LA19 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Granite and stone

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

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

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 will reply with a fixed price.
