About our worktop repair in Midgham

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand. If you are dealing with gouges in the surface and knife marks, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Related advice

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Quartz

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

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.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

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

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

When we would advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Signs you need worktop repair in Midgham

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Chips near the sink
  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • A chipped edge

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How the colour is matched
  • When it can be used again

10 questions to ask before booking

Repair or replace: which is better?

The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
