Worktop repair at your home in Lower Brailes

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. We build up the colour and flecks by hand so the repair blends in. We work on laminate, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian), and common reasons people get in touch are burns from hot pans and scratches and knife marks.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Lower Brailes and across Oxfordshire.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Your questions about worktop repair in Lower Brailes

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

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

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Is my repair covered?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can pets and children be at home?

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

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Lower Brailes included. There is no extra charge for travel.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

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

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Use a chopping board
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

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

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Water-swollen laminate

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

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

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.
