Worktop repair in Selsey without replacing anything

Each type of worktop needs a different approach: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. The goal is always a repair that blends in. Typical jobs include a dent from a dropped pan and a damaged sink edge, in granite & marble, quartz and solid surface (such as Corian).

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Do not knock pans against the edge

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

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

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Common problems we fix in Selsey

The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A damaged sink edge
  • A heat mark or burn
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Gouges in the surface

What your quote should include

  • How to care for the finish
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How the colour is matched
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

10 questions to ask before booking

Should you replace it?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is usually far better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

When a repair is not the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Questions from Selsey

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you come to Selsey?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Selsey and the rest of West Sussex. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Selsey and the rest of West Sussex. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

If you are in Selsey and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
