Can I fix it myself?

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

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

About our worktop repair in Little Ditton

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen. Most repairs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. We’re often asked to fix scratches and knife marks and dents and gouges, across solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and quartz.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A top that moves on its units

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

Surfaces we repair

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

What affects the price in Little Ditton

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

How to get a fixed price

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

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

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop

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

Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Little Ditton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Repairs by material

Solid surface

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

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  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. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

Common questions in Little Ditton

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What areas do you cover?

All of Cambridgeshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can you quote from pictures?

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

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

How much do I need to move?

Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What does worktop repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
