Need worktop repair in Merrow?

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Worktop repair in Merrow without replacing anything

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. We regularly repair solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and solid wood, and common reasons people get in touch are scratches and knife marks and a dent from a dropped pan.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Merrow. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Merrow: your questions answered

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Merrow and the rest of Surrey. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Do you cover Merrow?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Merrow. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Use a chopping board
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. 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.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Laminate
  • Solid wood
  • Quartz
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)

  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Damage around the sink cut-out

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Colour-matched on site
  • A fixed quote before booking

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

Granite and stone

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