Worktop repair in Six Ashes

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

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

Worktop repair in Six Ashes without replacing anything

You don’t need a new worktop because of one mark. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. Whether it’s a damaged sink edge and scorch marks from pans, we can typically put it right.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  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. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

Solid surface

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

Common problems we fix in Six Ashes

Most chips are on edges and corners, frequently when something heavy catches the edge.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Chips caused during installation
  • A heat mark or burn
  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Dents and gouges

Before booking anyone

  • What prep work is covered
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Who will actually do the work

How to compare quotes

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Keep a trivet by the hob

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

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

Six Ashes questions

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.

Do you cover Six Ashes?

We do. We send a technician to Six Ashes for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you match granite flecks?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
