How we handle worktop repair in Little Dunham

A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. Typical jobs include damage to a stone worktop and a dent from a dropped pan, in solid surface (such as Corian), quartz and solid wood.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

What a repair can’t fix

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What affects the price in Little Dunham

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Signs you need worktop repair in Little Dunham

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • A heat mark or burn
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • Chipped corners
  • Damage from fitting or building work

Before booking anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • No need to remove anything

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Clean spills straight away
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Use a chopping board
  • Keep wood oiled

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

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

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
