Worktop repair for New Forest homes

Landlords, agents and businesses in New Forest

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Worktop repair in New Forest without replacing anything

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We are often asked to fix dents and gouges and knife marks, on laminate, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian).

Every job is backed for twelve months in New Forest and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What affects the price in New Forest

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in New Forest, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

How to look after the repair

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

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Use a chopping board
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills straight away, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Repairs by material

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.

Questions from New Forest

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you come to New Forest?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to New Forest and the rest of Hampshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Repair or replace in New Forest?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for New Forest. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

  • Burns from hot pans
  • A dent from a dropped pan

What to look for in a quote

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access
