About our worktop repair in Swavesey

We repair worktops in place, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most repairs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. We regularly repair granite & marble, laminate and solid wood, and people most frequently call us about damage from fitting or building work and scratches and knife marks.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Swavesey, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Wipe up spills quickly

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills right away, and keep wooden tops oiled.

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

What affects the price in Swavesey

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Swavesey. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Do you need worktop repair in Swavesey?

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Chipped corners
  • A damaged sink edge
  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Scorch marks from pans

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
