Worktop repair in Laddingford without replacing anything

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. We build up the colour and flecks by hand. If you are dealing with damage around the sink cut-out and scratches and knife marks, we can normally put it right.

When to call us in Laddingford

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives leave scratches, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A heat mark or burn
  • Chips near the sink
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen

What to look for in a quote

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Prices start from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

Read our prices page.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Granite & marble
  • Laminate
  • Solid wood
  • Quartz
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Laddingford. What changes the price is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Laddingford. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Do not knock pans against the edge

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

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

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We assess 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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
