Materials and what they mean for the repair

Granite and stone

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

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.

About our worktop repair in Soberton

You don’t need a new worktop because of one mark. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the pattern. Typical jobs include knife marks and damage to a stone worktop, across laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Soberton: your questions answered

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

In most cases. A photo lets us check what’s possible.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you come to Soberton?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Soberton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you need worktop repair in Soberton?

The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Burns from hot pans
  • A damaged sink edge
  • Chips caused during installation
  • Knife marks

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Wipe up spills quickly

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Failed support under the worktop

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Soberton

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
