Repair or replace: which is better?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is usually far better value. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

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

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in Shernborne

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Scratches and knife marks

Questions to ask before booking

  • What prep work is covered
  • How to look after the finish
  • If travel is included in the price
  • When it can be used again

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  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. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

Most customers in Shernborne get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Advice

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Keep joints and edges dry

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.

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

What affects the price in Shernborne

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material

If you are in Shernborne and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Different materials, different repairs

Wood

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

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
