Worktop repair near Lower Cox Street

Worktop repair in Lower Cox Street, done in place

The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. We build up the colour and flecks by hand. Common call-outs are for a dent from a dropped pan and scorch marks from pans, in solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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 a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

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

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

What we work on

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

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Use a chopping board
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Why repair rather than replace?

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Repairs by material

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Solid surface

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

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
