Need worktop repair in Market Overton?

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How we handle worktop repair in Market Overton

Pan burns, chipped edges and knife scratches are the most common worktop repairs. All are repaired in place. Whether it’s burns from hot pans and gouges in the surface, we can help, on laminate, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian) alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Questions from Market Overton

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

When can you do it?

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

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes, frequently. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

Repairing versus replacing in Market Overton

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Dry around the sink and joints

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

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Market Overton. The price reflects:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

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

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Most customers in Market Overton get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Market Overton as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
