Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

How we handle worktop repair in North Kelsey

We repair worktops in place. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. If you’re dealing with chips near the sink and a dent from a dropped pan, we can normally put it right.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

FAQs for North Kelsey

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

How do I get a price for worktop repair in North Kelsey?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Typically. Send us a photo and we will tell you.

Different materials, different repairs

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Failed support under the worktop

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Repair or replace: which is better?

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. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

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

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
