When a repair isn’t the answer

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

How we handle worktop repair in Mells

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Whether it’s a heat mark or burn and chips in quartz or granite, we can help.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Choosing a repair company

Should you replace it?

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting 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. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why us?

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Clean spills right away

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

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Landlord and trade work in Mells

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Common questions in Mells

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Mells and the rest of Somerset. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

How much do I need to move?

Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

In most cases. A photo lets us check.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
