Worktop repair in Rockcliffe

Worktop repair at your home in Rockcliffe

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen. Most jobs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. Whether it’s a chipped quartz edge and chips near the sink, we can help, on solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble alike.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What a repair can’t fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Never put hot pans down directly

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

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

When to call us in Rockcliffe

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, which can cause swelling.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A chipped quartz edge
  • A chipped edge
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Burns from hot pans

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

How to compare quotes

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.

  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. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Common questions in Rockcliffe

Do you cover Rockcliffe?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Rockcliffe from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only the area we are working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What affects the price in Rockcliffe

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Rockcliffe. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What your worktop is made of matters

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
