Worktop repair near Oakdale

Worktop repair in Oakdale without replacing anything

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Typical jobs include damage around the sink cut-out and scorch marks from pans, across solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and solid wood.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Oakdale and across Poole.

Repairs by material

Solid surface

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

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

Do you need worktop repair in Oakdale?

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

Clients normally contact us about:

  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • A chipped edge
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Chips caused during installation

Questions to ask before you book

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What prep work is covered

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Oakdale

For anyone letting property in or around Oakdale, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, 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 Oakdale customers choose us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Common questions in Oakdale

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Oakdale?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Are there extra charges for Oakdale?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

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

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Clean spills right away
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Keep a trivet by the hob

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

When a repair is not the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • A top that moves on its units

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

The process

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
