Worktop repair for Lower Blagdon homes

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

How we handle worktop repair in Lower Blagdon

A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. We are often asked to fix dents and gouges and damage to a stone worktop, on granite & marble, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian).

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Repairs by material

Granite and stone

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

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon 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. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  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 match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Related advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

What you get with us

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Colour-matched on site
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

See our prices page.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire worktop

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lower Blagdon

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

What we cannot put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Failed support under the worktop

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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