Different materials, different repairs

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DH7 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • A top that moves on its units

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Langley Moor. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • One visit for most repairs

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  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. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
