About our worktop repair in Kelby

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the area around the damage covered. Most repairs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. Common call-outs are for cuts and scratches in the surface and chips on edges and corners, in solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

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

Materials we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

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

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know about parking or access

Why repair rather than replace?

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Kelby. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Kelby customers choose us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Generally one visit, start to finish

Your questions about worktop repair in Kelby

What information do you need?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

Can landlords book you?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Do you cover Kelby?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Kelby and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Clean spills right away

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.

What your worktop is made of matters

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

Common problems we fix in Kelby

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, which can cause swelling.

The things clients generally mention when they call are:

  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Chips near the sink

What your quote should include

  • How soon you can use it again
  • How the colour is matched
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
