How we handle worktop repair in Netherbury

Each type of worktop needs a different approach: 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. We’re frequently asked to fix a chipped quartz edge and knife marks, across granite & marble, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • Failed support under the worktop

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Netherbury. The price reflects:

  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

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

Repairing versus replacing in Netherbury

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good.

Netherbury: your questions answered

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Can landlords book you?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, matched and polished.

Can you quote from pictures?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  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. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage
