Worktop repair in Port Dundas

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Worktop repair at your home in Port Dundas

Laminate, quartz, granite, solid surface and wooden worktops can all be repaired, with colour and pattern matched by hand. The worktop stays in place. Our repair technicians work on solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and laminate, and people most frequently call us about burns from hot pans and chips caused during installation.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

When we would advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • Water-swollen laminate

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

Materials we repair

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

Repairs by material

Laminate

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

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.

What affects the price in Port Dundas

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

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

When to call us in Port Dundas

The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

Common reasons people in Port Dundas contact us are:

  • A damaged sink edge
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface

Questions to ask before you book

  • How to look after the finish
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How changes to the job are handled

10 questions to ask before you book

For landlords and businesses

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

If you manage property in Port Dundas, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Common questions in Port Dundas

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Often, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Are there extra charges for Port Dundas?

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