About our worktop repair in Rudmore

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. Whether it’s a chipped edge and chips caused during installation, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice

Honest limits

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

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

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

Materials we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Rudmore

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One visit for most repairs
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

See our prices page.

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

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

Rudmore questions

Is the work guaranteed?

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

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Normally. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you what’s possible.

What does worktop repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PO2 postcode.

Do you come to Rudmore?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Rudmore. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your PO2 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

When to call us in Rudmore

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 more slowly, from knives and grit.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Chips near the sink
  • A chipped edge
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Scratches and knife marks

What to look for in a quote

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How to look after the finish
