How we handle worktop repair in Lyme Regis

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. If you’re dealing with damage around the sink cut-out and damage to a stone worktop, we can typically put it right.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Repairing versus replacing in Lyme Regis

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Solid surface

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Common questions in Lyme Regis

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Lyme Regis. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

In most cases. A photo lets us check what’s possible.

Will it make a mess?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lyme Regis

If you manage property in Lyme Regis, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Dorset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Never put hot pans down directly

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Natural light rather than flash

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
