Worktop repair near Soake

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

About our worktop repair in Soake

You do not need a new worktop because of one mark. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. Common call-outs are for dents and gouges and burns from hot pans, in laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Soake questions

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

How much does worktop repair cost in Soake?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Do you cover Soake?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Soake and the rest of Hampshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Materials we work on in Soake

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Solid surface

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

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
