The process

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Use a chopping board
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Wipe up spills quickly

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Repair or replace in Sheldwich?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. 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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

Signs you need worktop repair in Sheldwich

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Knife marks
  • Chips caused during installation
  • A heat mark or burn
  • Chips in quartz or granite

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Our hiring checklist

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

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

Materials we repair

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

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A few things move the price: 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.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Natural light rather than flash

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
