Worktop repair in Poulner, done in place

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We work on granite & marble, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian), and people most frequently call us about scratches and knife marks and a chipped edge.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Poulner as everywhere else we work.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

What we can’t put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

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

Materials we repair

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

Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Poulner: your questions answered

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole worktop and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Often, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

What we’re called out for in Poulner

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

The things clients usually mention when they call are:

  • Chips near the sink
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Damage from fitting or building work

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • When it can be used again
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

Our hiring checklist

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Dry around the sink and joints

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

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

What affects the price in Poulner

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Poulner. The price reflects:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs

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.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
