Worktop repair near Kingsdown

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

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

About our worktop repair in Kingsdown

You do not need a new worktop because of one mark. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. We’re often asked to fix cuts and scratches in the surface and gouges in the surface, on granite & marble, solid surface (such as Corian) and solid wood.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice

Should you replace it?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Work done at your home or business

Can I fix it myself?

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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Kingsdown. The price reflects:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it

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

10 questions to ask before you book

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Keep a trivet by the hob

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair
