Worktop repair in Preston Plucknett

About our worktop repair in Preston Plucknett

A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. We work on solid wood, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian), and people most often call us about snagging damage in a new kitchen and chips near the sink.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

  • Same prices wherever you are

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Oil wooden tops regularly

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Open a window if you can

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Solid surface

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

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Common problems we fix in Preston Plucknett

Edges and corners chip most frequently, frequently when something heavy catches the edge.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Dents and gouges
  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Damage from fitting or building work

Questions to ask before booking

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • When it can be used again

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Preston Plucknett use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Honest limits

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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