About our worktop repair in Lower Bockhampton

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We are frequently asked to fix gouges in the surface and cuts and scratches in the surface, across granite & marble, quartz and laminate.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Your questions about worktop repair in Lower Bockhampton

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

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.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole worktop and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  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. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Make sure the area is dry

Advice

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • A top that moves on its units

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

Materials we repair

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

How to care for the repair

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

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Keep a trivet by the hob

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

What affects the price in Lower Bockhampton

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Should you replace it?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lower Bockhampton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lower Bockhampton as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
