Worktop repair for Pengegon homes

Pengegon: your questions answered

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

How much do I need to move?

Only the area we’re working on. The rest is covered and protected.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

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

How we handle worktop repair in Pengegon

Each type of worktop needs a different approach: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. We always aim for a repair that blends in. We regularly repair quartz, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate, and common reasons people contact us are chipped corners and chips caused during installation.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A top that moves on its units
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Pengegon. The price comes down to:

  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the whole worktop

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Different materials, different repairs

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Solid surface

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

When to call us in Pengegon

Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, and that’s where cracks often begin.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Chips near the sink
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • A dent from a dropped pan

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

How to compare quotes

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. 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 protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

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