Worktop repair at your home in Sandhurst Cross

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. If you are dealing with damage to a stone worktop and a chipped edge, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

Do you need worktop repair in Sandhurst Cross?

The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: 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.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Knife marks
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • Burns from hot pans

What to look for in a quote

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How your room will be protected

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Water-swollen laminate

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

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 start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

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

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Sandhurst Cross. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Sandhurst Cross, and we will reply with a fixed price.

How much does worktop repair cost in Sandhurst Cross?

Work for landlords and builders

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

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
