Worktop repair at your home in North Woolwich

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most repairs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. We regularly repair granite & marble, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian), and the jobs we see most are dents and gouges and snagging damage in a new kitchen.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Why repair rather than replace?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  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. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Do you work in North Woolwich?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to North Woolwich and the rest of Greater London. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop

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

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

Signs you need worktop repair in North Woolwich

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, and that can make them swell.

People usually call us when they notice something like this:

  • Knife marks
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Chips near the sink
  • Chips in quartz or granite

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • When it can be used again
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Our hiring checklist

What your worktop is made of matters

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.

Honest limits

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Granite & marble
  • Quartz
