Worktop repair for Leaton homes

About our worktop repair in Leaton

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen. Most repairs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. If you’re dealing with snagging damage in a new kitchen and gouges in the surface, we can help.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Keep wood oiled

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. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Common problems we fix in Leaton

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

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Gouges in the surface

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How the room is protected while they work

How to compare quotes

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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Leaton questions

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you work in Leaton?

We do. We send a technician to Leaton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole worktop and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  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

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Leaton. The price comes down to:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • Access to the area

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

Laminate

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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