Need worktop repair in Knox Bridge?

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

About our worktop repair in Knox Bridge

Different worktops need different repairs: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. We always aim for a repair that blends in. We work on laminate, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian), and common reasons people get in touch are gouges in the surface and chipped corners.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

How it works

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Use a chopping board
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Never put hot pans down directly

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

Repairing versus replacing in Knox Bridge

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is usually far better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Knox Bridge. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Knox Bridge, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
