Worktop repair in Moorside, done in place

A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. We regularly repair solid wood, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian), and the jobs we see most are chips on edges and corners and chips in quartz or granite.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

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

Do you work in Moorside?

We do. We send a technician to Moorside for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Knife marks
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Damage around the sink cut-out

Choosing a repair company

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.

Granite and stone

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

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

What affects the price in Moorside

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

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.
