How we handle worktop repair in Sway

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Whether it’s damage around the sink cut-out and a heat mark or burn, we can typically put it right.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Sway. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Sway. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Any details about the material

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Keep joints and edges dry

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Questions from Sway

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Sway.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

When to call us in Sway

The worst damage often happens in a moment: 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.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Dents and gouges
  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Chipped corners

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What preparation is included
  • How to look after the finish
  • Who turns up on the day

How to compare quotes

Landlord and trade work in Sway

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Honest limits

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

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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