Worktop repair at your home in North Heath

A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. We fill and refinish the damage to blend into the surface around it. If you’re dealing with chips caused during installation and burns from hot pans, we can help, whatever the material.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

10 questions to ask before booking

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.

Repairing versus replacing in North Heath

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for North Heath. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colour-matched on site
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Work done at your home or business

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

North Heath: your questions answered

How much do I need to move?

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

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Use a chopping board
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

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.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
