Worktop repair near Lydeard St Lawrence

Worktop repair at your home in Lydeard St Lawrence

Different worktops need different repairs: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. The goal is always a repair that blends in. Whether it’s a dent from a dropped pan and a chipped quartz edge, we can help, on laminate, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian) alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Different materials, different repairs

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lydeard St Lawrence use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Lydeard St Lawrence questions

How much do I need to move?

Only around the repair. You can typically still use the rest of the kitchen.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Do you work in Lydeard St Lawrence?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Lydeard St Lawrence from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage. The room is left tidy.

  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. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

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

10 questions to ask before you book

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Clean spills straight away
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Use a chopping board
  • Never put hot pans down directly

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
