Worktop repair in Kingswear without replacing anything

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. We build up the colour and flecks by hand so the repair blends in. Common call-outs are for damage to a stone worktop and burns from hot pans, in solid surface (such as Corian), laminate and quartz.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Kingswear, and we will reply with a fixed price.

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Use a chopping board

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Kingswear. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

There is 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 quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Our hiring checklist

Kingswear questions

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes, frequently. We match the colour and polish the repair.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Can you match granite flecks?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.

Wood

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
