Choosing a repair company

How we handle worktop repair in Sauchen

Different worktops need different repairs: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. We always aim for a repair that blends in. Whether it’s scorch marks from pans and damage to a stone worktop, we can help, on granite & marble, solid wood and quartz alike.

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

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop

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

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Sauchen. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sauchen use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know about parking or access

What your worktop is made of matters
