About our worktop repair in St Olaves

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We’re frequently asked to fix a damaged sink edge and damage to a stone worktop, in laminate, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian).

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What your worktop is made of matters

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Landlord and trade work in St Olaves

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in St Olaves use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Use a chopping board
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

Why repair rather than replace?

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. A repair is matched to what you have now. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
