Need worktop repair in Motcombe?

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Granite and stone

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

Worktop repair in Motcombe without replacing anything

Different worktops need different repairs: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. The goal is always a repair that blends in. Whether it’s cuts and scratches in the surface and damage around the sink cut-out, we can help.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills right away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Repair or replace in Motcombe?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

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 usually cheaper.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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 recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear the area around the damage
