Trusted worktop repair in Long Marston

Worktop repair at your home in Long Marston

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Typical jobs include dents and gouges and chips in quartz or granite, across solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and quartz.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Long Marston as everywhere else we work.

Repairs by material

Wood

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

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Oil wooden tops regularly

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

When to call us in Long Marston

Edges and corners chip most frequently, frequently when something heavy catches the edge.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • A chipped edge
  • Dents and gouges
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • Damage to a stone worktop

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Water-swollen laminate

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Long Marston: your questions answered

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

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

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole worktop and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Typically, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
