How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the area is dry

How we handle worktop repair in St Ann's

You don’t need a new worktop because of one mark. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. Common call-outs are for a damaged sink edge and scratches and knife marks, on solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What affects the price in St Ann's

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to St Ann's. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for St Ann's. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Different materials, different repairs

Solid surface

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

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Clean spills right away
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Never put hot pans down directly

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills immediately, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Questions from St Ann's

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you need worktop repair in St Ann's?

Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, and that can make them swell.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • Chips caused during installation
  • Burns from hot pans
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Gouges in the surface

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Should you replace it?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
