Book worktop repair in Puddledock

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  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. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

Worktop repair at your home in Puddledock

We repair worktops in place, with the area around the damage covered. Most repairs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. We regularly repair quartz, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate, and the jobs we see most are snagging damage in a new kitchen and cuts and scratches in the surface.

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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Laminate

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

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.

When to call us in Puddledock

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives cut, and heavy pans chip the edges.

Common reasons people in Puddledock contact us include:

  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Chips caused during installation
  • Damage around the sink cut-out

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • A top that moves on its units
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Puddledock

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Aftercare tips

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

  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills straight away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

Puddledock questions

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Do you cover the entire of Norfolk?

The entire UK, including all of Norfolk. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
