Worktop repair in Norwood Hill

Worktop repair at your home in Norwood Hill

Each type of worktop needs a different approach: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. We always aim for a repair that blends in. Common call-outs are for chips near the sink and chips in quartz or granite, on granite & marble, quartz and solid surface (such as Corian).

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Common questions in Norwood Hill

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

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

Do I need to empty the worktop?

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

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Do you cover Norwood Hill?

We do. We send a technician to Norwood Hill for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 frequently lifts.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Oil wooden tops regularly

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • A top that moves on its units

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • No need to remove anything

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Norwood Hill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

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.

Solid surface

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

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Surrey and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
