Worktop repair in Sturminster Newton, done in place

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Repairing versus replacing in Sturminster Newton
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.

Can pets and children be at home?

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- A top that moves on its units
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair

What affects the price in Sturminster Newton

How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Keep wood oiled
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
What your worktop is made of matters
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
We price from pictures so you don’t 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, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
