Worktop repair for Prees Heath homes

Worktop repair in Prees Heath without replacing anything

We repair chips, burns and scratches in laminate, stone, quartz, solid surface and wooden worktops, with colour and pattern matched by hand. Nothing is taken out. We’re often asked to fix damage from fitting or building work and gouges in the surface, across laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and solid wood.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Different materials, different repairs

Laminate

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

Solid surface

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

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Re-oil timber worktops

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SY13 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Can I fix it myself?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
