Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Water-swollen laminate

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Southend. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Do you need worktop repair in Southend?

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives leave scratches, and heavy pans chip the edges.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Gouges in the surface

What to look for in a quote

  • How to look after the finish
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to compare quotes

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Quartz

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

Solid surface

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

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

Your questions about worktop repair in Southend

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Will it make a mess?

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
