Worktop repair in Nab's Head, done in place

Pan burns, chipped edges and knife scratches make up most of our worktop work. All are repaired in place. Our technicians work on quartz, solid surface (such as Corian) and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are snagging damage in a new kitchen and a damaged sink edge.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches

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.

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

Can I fix it myself?

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Nab's Head

  • Quartz

10 questions to ask before booking

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Related advice

Nab's Head: your questions answered

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Often, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
