How we handle worktop repair in Peaslake

A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. We regularly repair solid wood, granite & marble and laminate, and common reasons people contact us are dents and gouges and a damaged sink edge.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Peaslake as everywhere else we work.

Should you replace it?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

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

Surfaces we repair

  • Granite & marble
  • Laminate
  • Quartz
  • Solid wood

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Clean spills immediately

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills straight away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

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

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Peaslake. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Peaslake. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
