Worktop repair near Linkhill

FAQs for Linkhill

Can you match granite flecks?

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is it messy?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Do you work in Linkhill?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Linkhill for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Should you replace it?

A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Do not knock pans against the edge

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What we are called out for in Linkhill

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

Customers normally contact us about:

  • A chipped edge
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Knife marks

What your quote should include

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What prep work is covered

10 questions to ask before you book

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.

What affects the price in Linkhill

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For a price in Linkhill, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
