How we handle worktop repair in Lissenden Gardens

Different worktops need different repairs: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. We always aim for a repair that blends in. We regularly repair solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and granite & marble, and common reasons people contact us are a chipped edge and knife marks.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Granite and stone

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

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

FAQs for Lissenden Gardens

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

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

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

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

In most cases. A picture lets us check what’s possible.

Do you work in Lissenden Gardens?

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

What happens after I send pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

When we visit, 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, depending on the damage. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  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. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

For a price in Lissenden Gardens, 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.

10 questions to ask before you book

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Wipe up spills quickly

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

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
