Worktop repair in Old Oak Common without replacing anything

Burns from hot pans, chips on edges and scratches from knives are the most common worktop repairs. All are repaired in place. We are frequently asked to fix a heat mark or burn and gouges in the surface, in granite & marble, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Questions from Old Oak Common

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Frequently, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Old Oak Common

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Do you need worktop repair in Old Oak Common?

The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

Common reasons people in Old Oak Common contact us are:

  • A chipped edge
  • A heat mark or burn
  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Chips near the sink

What to look for in a quote

  • Aftercare advice
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What prep work is covered
  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Clean spills immediately
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
