Worktop repair in Tallentire, done in place

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand so the repair blends in. Our repair technicians work on solid surface (such as Corian), laminate and granite & marble, and the jobs we see most are damage to a stone worktop and knife marks.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Repairs by material

Granite and stone

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

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.

What affects the price in Tallentire

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

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.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Keep joints and edges dry

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Repairing versus replacing in Tallentire

Choosing a repair company

Questions from Tallentire

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

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Do you repair quartz?

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

What happens after I send photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

In most cases. A picture lets us check what’s possible.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

How it works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can
