Whether it’s chips caused during installation and burns from hot pans, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Different materials, different repairs

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

Solid surface

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

Your questions about worktop repair in Lofthouse

How much do I need to move?

Only around the repair. You can generally still use the rest of the kitchen.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Signs you need worktop repair in Lofthouse

Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans scorch, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

The things clients generally mention when they call are:

  • Burns from hot pans
  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Knife marks
  • A dent from a dropped pan

Before booking anyone

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Why repair rather than replace?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Normally one visit, start to finish

Read our prices page.

What affects the price in Lofthouse

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

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lofthouse. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can price the job.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Use a chopping board
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
