About our worktop repair in Middle Assendon

Different worktops need different repairs: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. We always aim for a repair that blends in. We regularly repair solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble, and the jobs we see most are damage from fitting or building work and a damaged sink edge.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Oxfordshire.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Middle Assendon?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  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

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Landlord and trade work in Middle Assendon

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Repairs by material

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Laminate

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

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Middle Assendon

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

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

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

When to call us in Middle Assendon

Sink and hob cut-outs are weak points, so cracks and chips often start there.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • Chips near the sink
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
