Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

Overthorpe questions

What happens after I send pictures?

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

How much do I need to move?

Only the area we’re working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you match granite flecks?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

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

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Usually, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

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

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • A top that moves on its units

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

Materials we repair

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

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Keep a trivet by the hob

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

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

How it works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

Advice

Different materials, different repairs

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Granite and stone

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