What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Worktop repair at your home in Longford

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most repairs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. Common call-outs are for chips in quartz or granite and a dent from a dropped pan, in granite & marble, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian).

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Different materials, different repairs

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.

Granite and stone

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

Longford: your questions answered

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes, frequently. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

Do you work in Longford?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Longford for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Are you accredited?

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

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Longford?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CV6 postcode.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  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

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Related advice

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What affects the price in Longford

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Longford. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
