Worktop repair for New Hainford homes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

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

Worktop repair in New Hainford, done in place

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen. Most repairs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. Whether it’s scratches and knife marks and damage around the sink cut-out, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

Do you need worktop repair in New Hainford?

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Dents and gouges
  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • A chipped edge
  • Scorch marks from pans

Our hiring checklist

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in New Hainford, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in New Hainford

If you manage property in New Hainford, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Should you replace it?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Use a chopping board
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Oil wooden tops regularly

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

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