Worktop repair in Ryton Woodside, done in place

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand so the repair blends in. Our repair technicians work on solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and laminate, and the jobs we see most are chips caused during installation and cuts and scratches in the surface.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

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

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

When to call us in Ryton Woodside

  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Chipped corners

Questions to ask before booking
