Worktop repair near Old Hunstanton

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Use a chopping board

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

We repair chips, burns and scratches in laminate, stone, quartz, solid surface and wooden worktops, matching the colour and pattern by hand. The worktop stays in place. Common call-outs are for a chipped quartz edge and a damaged sink edge, on quartz, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian).

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Norfolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What affects the price in Old Hunstanton

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Old Hunstanton. The price comes down to:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Common problems we fix in Old Hunstanton

The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • Gouges in the surface
  • Chips caused during installation
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Chips near the sink

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Aftercare advice

Our hiring checklist

Old Hunstanton questions

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Usually. A picture lets us check what’s possible.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Repair or replace in Old Hunstanton?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. 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.

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
