How we handle worktop repair in Sessay

You don’t need a new worktop because of one mark. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the pattern. Whether it’s dents and gouges and chipped corners, we can help, on solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Aftercare tips

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

  • Clean spills straight away
  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Keep joints and edges dry

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Our hiring checklist

Sessay questions

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Generally. Send us a picture and we will tell you.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire worktop and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Will there be a smell?

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Sessay, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.

Repairing versus replacing in Sessay

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Wood

When a repair is not the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Water-swollen laminate

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
