Worktop repair for Milton Street homes

What we can’t put right

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

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

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

What we work on

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

Worktop repair in Milton Street without replacing anything

The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. We build up the colour and flecks by hand so the repair blends in. Our repair technicians work on quartz, laminate and solid wood, and common reasons people contact us are damage from fitting or building work and dents and gouges.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Should you replace it?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is normally far better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Aftercare tips

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

  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Oil wooden tops regularly

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills right away, and keep wooden tops oiled.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

For landlords and businesses

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 to keep costs down.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your BN26 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Milton Street. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Questions from Milton Street

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Milton Street. Prices do not change with location.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only around the repair. You can typically still use the rest of the kitchen.

Do you need worktop repair in Milton Street?

Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans scorch, knives leave scratches, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A damaged sink edge
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • A chipped edge
  • Knife marks

Comparing quotes

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What prep work is covered
  • What happens if they find more damage

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
