Worktop repair at your home in Marley

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We work on solid surface (such as Corian), laminate and quartz, and the jobs we see most are chipped corners and burns from hot pans.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Wipe up spills quickly

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Common questions in Marley

Can you match granite flecks?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Often, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes, frequently. We match the colour and polish the repair.

How to compare quotes

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
