Worktop repair at your home in Poling

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Whether it’s damage to a stone worktop and damage around the sink cut-out, we can help, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Poling. What changes the price is:

  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Poling, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

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

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

Should you replace it?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Poling. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Different materials, different repairs

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
