Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good.

Worktop repair in North Kilworth, done in place

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We are frequently asked to fix a chipped edge and scorch marks from pans, in solid wood, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian).

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Solid surface

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

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Do not let water sit on joints

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

What we’re called out for in North Kilworth

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Knife marks
  • Gouges in the surface
  • A chipped edge
  • Scorch marks from pans

10 questions to ask before you book

Questions from North Kilworth

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Frequently, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Just near the damage. You can typically still use the rest of the kitchen.

Are there extra charges for North Kilworth?

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

Do you cover the entire of Leicestershire?

We cover the entire UK, including North Kilworth and the rest of Leicestershire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

What affects the price in North Kilworth

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

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your LE17 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Failed support under the worktop

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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