Trusted worktop repair in Tansterne

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

About our worktop repair in Tansterne

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We’re frequently asked to fix knife marks and a heat mark or burn, in solid wood, quartz and solid surface (such as Corian).

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We assess 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. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Clean spills straight away
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop

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

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

When we would advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Tansterne

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

Repairs by material

What we are called out for in Tansterne

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.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Gouges in the surface
  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • A chipped edge
  • Burns from hot pans
