A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. We work on solid wood, granite & marble and laminate, and the jobs we see most are chips caused during installation and cuts and scratches in the surface.

Repairing versus replacing in Loose

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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Loose: your questions answered

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

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

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Are there extra charges for Loose?

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

What we’re called out for in Loose

Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, and that’s where cracks frequently begin.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • Dents and gouges
  • Chips caused during installation
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Knife marks

Before booking anyone

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Aftercare advice
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We start by checking 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 match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.

Wood

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size

For a price in Loose, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

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

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Clean spills straight away

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

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