Worktop repair for Summerstown homes

About our worktop repair in Summerstown

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Typical jobs include chips near the sink and damage to a stone worktop, across laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • 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

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Clean spills immediately
  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Keep wood oiled

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.
