Worktop repair for Rimpton homes

Worktop repair in Rimpton without replacing anything

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. We build up the colour and flecks by hand so the repair blends in. We are often asked to fix snagging damage in a new kitchen and a damaged sink edge, in solid surface (such as Corian), quartz and solid wood.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Rimpton

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Common problems we fix in Rimpton

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Chipped corners
  • A heat mark or burn
  • Chips near the sink
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface

See our prices page.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • A top that moves on its units

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

Surfaces we repair

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

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Questions from Rimpton

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Are there extra charges for Rimpton?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Rimpton. Our prices are the same everywhere.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Different materials, different repairs

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Never put hot pans down directly

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

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