Worktop repair for Kimbolton homes

Worktop repair at your home in Kimbolton

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Typical jobs include scratches and knife marks and a damaged sink edge, in granite & marble, quartz and solid surface (such as Corian).

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Kimbolton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Details of any past repairs

There’s no need for us to visit first. 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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Never put hot pans down directly

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kimbolton

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Herefordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
