Need worktop repair in Markby?

What we cannot put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

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

Materials we work on in Markby

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

Worktop repair in Markby, done in place

A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. If you’re dealing with snagging damage in a new kitchen and a damaged sink edge, we can help.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Landlord and trade work in Markby

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Markby use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Use a chopping board
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Wipe up spills quickly

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Repairs by material

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Markby. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Colour-matched on site

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Common problems we fix in Markby

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, and that can make them swell.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Knife marks
  • Chipped corners
  • Chips near the sink

What your quote should include

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How to look after the finish
