About our worktop repair in Kilmore

Each type of worktop needs a different approach: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. We always aim for a repair that blends in. Whether it’s scorch marks from pans and damage to a stone worktop, we can help, on laminate, quartz and solid surface (such as Corian) alike.

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

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
We match the colour and pattern by hand.
Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Preparing for the visit

Let us know about parking or access
Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

What the surface is made of
The size and number of damaged areas
How easy the damage is to reach
Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

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

Your postcode, so we can check dates
Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Any details about the material

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

Laminate swollen by water from underneath
Through cracks in stone that is moving
A top that moves on its units

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

Keep joints and edges dry
Chopping boards prevent scratches
Keep a trivet by the hob
Do not leave spills to soak in

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills immediately, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Questions from Kilmore

How do I book?

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

Do I need to empty the worktop?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

In most cases. A picture lets us check.

Do you repair quartz?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
