Worktop repair in Stockton without replacing anything

The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. We build up the colour and flecks by hand. Common call-outs are for knife marks and damage from fitting or building work, across laminate, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian).

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Oil wooden tops regularly

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Granite and stone

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

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

Your questions about worktop repair in Stockton

How much do I need to move?

Just near the damage. You can generally still use the rest of the kitchen.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Often, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Stockton. The price comes down to:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can price the job without visiting.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is generally far better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. 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 will get a fixed figure.

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
