Worktop repair in South Street without replacing anything

We repair worktops in place, with the area around the damage covered. Most repairs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. Common call-outs are for a chipped quartz edge and knife marks, on quartz, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian).

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Landlord and trade work in South Street

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Should you replace it?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Prices start from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice

Repairs by material

Granite and stone

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

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

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

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Do you need worktop repair in South Street?

Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, so cracks and chips frequently start there.

Look out for these signs:

  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Gouges in the surface
  • Damage around the sink cut-out

Questions to ask before you book

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
