When a repair isn’t the answer

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

10 questions to ask before you book

Your questions about worktop repair in Rake

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only the area we are working on. The rest is covered and protected.

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Rake?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your HX7 postcode.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Why repair rather than replace?

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. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Repairs by material

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Clean spills immediately
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
