Worktop repair at your home in Moretonhampstead

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. Typical jobs include chips caused during installation and damage to a stone worktop, on laminate, solid wood and granite & marble.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Moretonhampstead

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Our worktop repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Clean spills right away
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

Moretonhampstead: your questions answered

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

How much do I need to move?

Just near the damage. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

What happens after I send photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you quote from pictures?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
