Different materials, different repairs

Solid surface

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

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Questions from Saltergate

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Frequently, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only around the repair. You can typically still use the rest of the kitchen.

How much does worktop repair cost in Saltergate?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Are there extra charges for Saltergate?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Saltergate

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Saltergate, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
