Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Never put hot pans down directly

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills right away, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

How we handle worktop repair in Sprowston

Burns from hot pans, chips on edges and scratches from knives are the most common worktop repairs. We repair them all in your kitchen. We’re often asked to fix chips in quartz or granite and damage from fitting or building work, across quartz, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian).

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

10 questions to ask before you book

Different materials, different repairs

Granite and stone

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

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

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

Materials we repair

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

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material

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.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material

If you are in Sprowston and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Should you replace it?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is normally far better value. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • No extra charge for your area

Read our prices page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
