About our worktop repair in South Croydon

Laminate, quartz, granite, solid surface and wooden worktops can all be repaired, matching the colour and pattern by hand. The worktop stays in place. We regularly repair solid wood, laminate and granite & marble, and the jobs we see most are a dent from a dropped pan and chips near the sink.

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in South Croydon

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in South Croydon as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, tidy-up included.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

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 we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Advice

What your worktop is made of matters

Solid surface

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

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

What affects the price in South Croydon

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CR2 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

South Croydon: your questions answered

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in South Croydon.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

In most cases. A picture lets us check.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What we cannot put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in South Croydon

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

Should you replace it?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
