Worktop repair near Stanley Common

Worktop repair in Stanley Common without replacing anything

Each type of worktop needs a different approach: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. We always aim for a repair that blends in. Our technicians work on solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and quartz, and people most frequently call us about chips in quartz or granite and chips near the sink.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

What your worktop is made of matters

Solid surface

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

Granite and stone

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

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

Materials we repair

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

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is normally far better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
