How we handle worktop repair in Rode Heath

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We work on laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and solid wood, and common reasons people contact us are chips in quartz or granite and gouges in the surface.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Rode Heath: your questions answered

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What does worktop repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Often, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

When to call us in Rode Heath

Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, and that can make them swell.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Knife marks
  • A damaged sink edge
  • Chipped corners

What your quote should include

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Who turns up on the day

Different materials, different repairs

Solid surface

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

Wood

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

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

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

Materials we work on in Rode Heath

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

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Clean spills straight away
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches

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

Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Related advice

Should you replace it?

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
