Worktop repair in Lillington

About our worktop repair in Lillington

You do not need a new worktop because of one mark. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the pattern. Typical jobs include cuts and scratches in the surface and a chipped edge, in granite & marble, solid wood and laminate.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Repairs by material

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

Granite and stone

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

Questions from Lillington

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes, frequently. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

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.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can price the job without visiting.

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Get a quote

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a repair cannot fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Water-swollen laminate

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

Materials we repair

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

When to call us in Lillington

Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, and that can make them swell.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Chipped corners
  • Chips near the sink
  • Knife marks

Questions to ask before booking

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What preparation is included
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
