Worktop repair in Pinwherry, done in place

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen. Most repairs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. We’re often asked to fix chips on edges and corners and chips caused during installation, across solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and granite & marble.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Pinwherry, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

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

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. 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. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  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.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Pinwherry. The price reflects:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

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

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

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

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

Do you need worktop repair in Pinwherry?

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives leave scratches, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

People normally call us when they notice something like this:

  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Scratches and knife marks

What your quote should include

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

10 questions to ask before booking

Should you replace it?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What you get with us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
