  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Scorch marks from pans

10 questions to ask before you book

Worktop repair at your home in Keythorpe

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. We work on laminate, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian), and common reasons people get in touch are knife marks and chips on edges and corners.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What your worktop is made of matters

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

Solid surface

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

Repair or replace in Keythorpe?

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Common questions in Keythorpe

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Do you come to Keythorpe?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Keythorpe for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Don’t let water sit on joints

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Related advice

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

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

Materials we work on in Keythorpe

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

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Keythorpe. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Keythorpe. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your LE7 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
