About our worktop repair in Swinhope

Burns from hot pans, chips on edges and scratches from knives make up most of our worktop work. We repair them all in your kitchen. If you’re dealing with snagging damage in a new kitchen and chips near the sink, we can normally put it right, on solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and solid wood alike.

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

Different materials, different repairs

Quartz

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

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Swinhope

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

If you manage property in Swinhope, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Common problems we fix in Swinhope

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, and that can make them swell.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • A chipped edge
  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Damage around the sink cut-out

Choosing a repair company

What affects the price in Swinhope

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Never put hot pans down directly

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.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

FAQs for Swinhope

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

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

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price
