Trusted worktop repair in Penn

Worktop repair in Penn without replacing anything

We repair worktops in place, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. If you are dealing with chips on edges and corners and chips caused during installation, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Landlord and trade work in Penn

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Penn as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Penn, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
