Worktop repair near Sopley

Your questions about worktop repair in Sopley

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

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do you cover Sopley?

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

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.

Will it make a mess?

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

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Worktop repair in Sopley without replacing anything

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We work on quartz, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian), and the jobs we see most are burns from hot pans and a dent from a dropped pan.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

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.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

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

Materials we work on in Sopley

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

What happens on the day

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 few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, 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.

What your worktop is made of matters

Granite and stone

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

Wood

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

Repairing versus replacing in Sopley

A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. 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 photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Dry around the sink and joints

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
