Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

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. An early repair prevents it.

Worktop repair in Potarch without replacing anything

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. We build up the colour and flecks by hand so the repair blends in. Typical jobs include a chipped quartz edge and knife marks, across laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What worktop repair costs

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

  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Should you replace it?

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. A repair is matched to what you have now. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Potarch. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Landlord and trade work in Potarch

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Aberdeenshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • A top that moves on its units

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

Materials we work on in Potarch

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

Common problems we fix in Potarch

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, and that can make them swell.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Chips caused during installation
  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Chips near the sink
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price
