Worktop repair in Lem Hill without replacing anything

Burns from hot pans, chips on edges and scratches from knives make up most of our worktop work. All are repaired in place. If you are dealing with chips on edges and corners and snagging damage in a new kitchen, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Before and after: damaged granite tiles repaired in place

How it works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Don’t let water sit on joints

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Questions from Lem Hill

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, filled and polished to match.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

In most cases. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you what’s possible.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Signs you need worktop repair in Lem Hill

Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, which can cause swelling.

  • Burns from hot pans

10 questions to ask before you book

What affects the price in Lem Hill

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of

There are no surprise 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.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

We price from pictures so you don’t 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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lem Hill

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lem Hill use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
