Worktop repair at your home in Roydon

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the area around the damage covered. Most jobs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. If you are dealing with damage around the sink cut-out and cuts and scratches in the surface, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Repairs by material

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Solid surface

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

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Use a chopping board
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Never put hot pans down directly

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

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Questions from Roydon

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Failed support under the worktop

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have 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 clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
