Worktop repair in Roughway

How it works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Use a chopping board
  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

If you manage property in Roughway, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Questions from Roughway

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Which areas do you work in?

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

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Why repair rather than replace?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We leave the room as we found it

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A picture taken from further back

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your TN11 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
