Worktop repair in Shaldon, done in place

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. Whether it’s damage around the sink cut-out and damage from fitting or building work, we can typically put it right, on solid wood, laminate and granite & marble alike.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your TQ14 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

When we’d advise against a repair

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

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

Your questions about worktop repair in Shaldon

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Is it messy?

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

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Repair or replace in Shaldon?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

What your worktop is made of matters

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

When to call us in Shaldon

  • Chipped corners
  • Dents and gouges
  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Chips caused during installation

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • When it can be used again

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

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

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
