Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Landlord and trade work in Kirkby-in-Furness

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kirkby-in-Furness use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

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

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We start by checking 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. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

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. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
