Worktop repair near Porthill

Worktop repair in Porthill, done in place

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand so the repair blends in. Typical jobs include chipped corners and scratches and knife marks, on quartz, solid wood and laminate.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Porthill: your questions answered

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you work in Porthill?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Porthill. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

Laminate

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

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

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

Surfaces we repair

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

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

When to call us in Porthill

The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Gouges in the surface
  • Chipped corners
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • Scorch marks from pans

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Landlord and trade work in Porthill

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

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

If you’re in Porthill and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Re-oil timber worktops

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
