Book worktop repair in Sunnymead

Work for landlords and builders

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.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Worktop repair at your home in Sunnymead

A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. We regularly repair solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and laminate, and common reasons people contact us are cuts and scratches in the surface and chips caused during installation.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Sunnymead: your questions answered

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you cover the entire of Oxfordshire?

We cover the whole UK, including Sunnymead and the rest of Oxfordshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes, often. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can you match granite flecks?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Sunnymead. The price reflects:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Should you replace it?

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. A repair is matched to what you have now. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, then guarantee it for a year.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

How the visit works

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
