Worktop repair in Sternfield 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. Common call-outs are for burns from hot pans and damage to a stone worktop, on laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble.

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

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can

10 questions to ask before booking

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Landlord and trade work in Sternfield

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Repairs by material

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Solid surface

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Use a chopping board
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Re-oil timber worktops

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

What we can’t put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
