Worktop repair in Short Heath

Worktop repair in Short Heath without replacing anything

The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand. We work on quartz, laminate and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are chips in quartz or granite and damage around the sink cut-out.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What affects the price in Short Heath

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

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

The process

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Short Heath, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

FAQs for Short Heath

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Often, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

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

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How much do I need to move?

Just near the damage. You can typically still use the rest of the kitchen.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

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

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace in Short Heath?

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 normally far better value. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Common problems we fix in Short Heath

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

The things clients usually mention when they call include:

  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • A chipped quartz edge

Before you book anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

10 questions to ask before you book

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
