Worktop repair in Setchey

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Do not knock pans against the edge

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

Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

How we handle worktop repair in Setchey

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Whether it’s cuts and scratches in the surface and damage around the sink cut-out, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Setchey as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Questions from Setchey

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.

Do you come to Setchey?

We do. Technicians travel to Setchey from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the area is dry

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Repairs by material

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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