Trusted worktop repair in Stoke

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Clean spills straight away
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Worktop repair in Stoke, done in place

Pan burns, chipped edges and knife scratches are the most common worktop repairs. We repair them all in your kitchen. We work on solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and quartz, and the jobs we see most are chipped corners and a dent from a dropped pan.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Stoke: your questions answered

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, so Stoke is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Do I need to be at home?

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

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

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only the area we’re working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Repair or replace in Stoke?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • One price list for the entire UK

Different materials, different repairs

Granite and stone

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

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Common problems we fix in Stoke

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives leave scratches, and heavy pans chip the edges.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Chips in quartz or granite

What to look for in a quote

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How the colour is matched
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What prep work is covered

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What affects the price in Stoke

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Failed support under the worktop

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

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
