How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Clean spills right away
  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Use a chopping board

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Worktop repair in Occold, done in place

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand so the repair blends in. If you’re dealing with knife marks and scorch marks from pans, we can typically put it right.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Repair or replace in Occold?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What your worktop is made of matters

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Laminate

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Occold

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  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. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage

Related advice

Occold: your questions answered

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you cover Occold?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Occold. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

What we cannot put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

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

Materials we work on in Occold

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Do you need worktop repair in Occold?

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Chipped corners
  • Damage from fitting or building work

Before you book anyone

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
