Worktop repair near Hythe

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material

If you’re in Hythe and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Worktop repair in Hythe without replacing anything

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Whether it’s chips on edges and corners and chips near the sink, we can help, on laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Why repair rather than replace?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Generally one visit, start to finish

Choosing a repair company

How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Use a chopping board
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Dry around the sink and joints

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

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

Most customers in Hythe get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Landlord and trade work in Hythe

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

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.

Solid surface

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
