Worktop repair for Linfitts homes

Worktop repair in Linfitts without replacing anything

We repair worktops in place. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. Our technicians work on solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and quartz, and people most frequently call us about a damaged sink edge and chipped corners.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Quartz

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

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Linfitts

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

For anyone letting property in or around Linfitts, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

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

Repair or replace in Linfitts?

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
