Before and after: damaged granite tiles repaired in place

Should you replace it?

A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Sunderland. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

Steer clear of strong cleaners
Don’t cut directly on the worktop
Never put hot pans down directly
Keep wood oiled

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills straight away, and keep wooden tops oiled.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
We match the colour and pattern by hand.
We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

Let us know if it has been repaired before
Make sure the room can be ventilated
Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sunderland

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Common questions in Sunderland

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

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

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Are there extra charges for Sunderland?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Normally. Send us a photo and we will tell you what’s possible.
