Worktop repair in North Mymms

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Worktop repair in North Mymms, done in place

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We regularly repair solid wood, quartz and solid surface (such as Corian), and people most often call us about gouges in the surface and damage to a stone worktop.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Repair or replace in North Mymms?

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

How to look after the repair

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

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in North Mymms as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Do I have to be there?

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

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  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. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Advice

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.
