Worktop repair for Strome Ferry homes

Worktop repair in Strome Ferry without replacing anything

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. Whether it’s chips near the sink and scorch marks from pans, we can typically put it right.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  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. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Getting ready for the visit

Advice

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

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

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Questions from Strome Ferry

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Strome Ferry included. Travel is included in the price.

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

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only around the repair. You can generally still use the rest of the kitchen.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match

There are no surprise 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.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs

Most customers in Strome Ferry get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Repair or replace in Strome Ferry?

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. A repair is matched to what you have now. Our worktop repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
