DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Signs you need worktop repair in Sandhutton

Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans leave burns, knives cut, and heavy pans chip the edges.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Knife marks

  • Chips caused during installation

Questions to ask before booking

  • What prep work is covered
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Common questions in Sandhutton

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your YO7 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Related advice

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Solid surface

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

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Clean spills right away
  • Do not let water sit on joints

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

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
