DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

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

FAQs for Oaks in Charnwood

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What we can’t put right

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

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Advice

Do you need worktop repair in Oaks in Charnwood?

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, which can cause swelling.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • A heat mark or burn
  • A chipped quartz edge

What your quote should include

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What prep work is covered
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
