Repairs by material

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Salwick. The price comes down to:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Salwick. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

When to call us in Salwick

Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, and that can make them swell.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Chips near the sink
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Chips on edges and corners

FAQs for Salwick

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

How much do I need to move?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Do you cover Salwick?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Salwick from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

How to look after the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Keep a trivet by the hob

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills immediately, and keep wooden tops oiled.

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

What happens on the day

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 have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
