Worktop repair in Shapwick, done in place

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the area around the damage covered. Most jobs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. We regularly repair quartz, solid wood and laminate, and common reasons people get in touch are snagging damage in a new kitchen and chips in quartz or granite.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Different materials, different repairs

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Solid surface

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

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Shapwick questions

What does worktop repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

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

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Will it make a mess?

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

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Clean spills straight away
  • Keep joints and edges dry

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

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

What we’re called out for in Shapwick

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, which can cause swelling.

People normally call us when they notice one of these:

  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • A heat mark or burn
  • Chips near the sink
  • Chips caused during installation

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How to care for the finish
  • When it can be used again
  • How the room is protected while they work

Choosing a repair company

Repairing versus replacing in Shapwick

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We leave the room as we found it

Read our prices page.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
