Worktop repair in Spitalfields

Worktop repair in Spitalfields without replacing anything

Different worktops need different repairs: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. The goal is always a repair that blends in. Our repair technicians work on solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and quartz, and the jobs we see most are burns from hot pans and a dent from a dropped pan.

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

Different materials, different repairs

Quartz

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

Solid surface

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

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 does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Repair or replace: which is better?

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. A repair is matched to what you have now. Prices start from £95. 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 will get a fixed figure.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Spitalfields. The price reflects:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Keep a trivet by the hob

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

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