Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Worktop repair in Leagrave without replacing anything

You don’t need a new worktop because of one mark. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. We work on quartz, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian), and common reasons people get in touch are damage around the sink cut-out and scratches and knife marks.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Leagrave and across Luton.

When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Failed support under the worktop

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Leagrave, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

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

Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 is not prepared the repair will not last.

Common questions in Leagrave

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Leagrave. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Common problems we fix in Leagrave

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives cut, and heavy pans chip the edges.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Scorch marks from pans

Before you book anyone

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • When it can be used again

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
