About our worktop repair in Tarbrax

The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand so the repair blends in. Common call-outs are for dents and gouges and a chipped edge, across solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and quartz.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tarbrax

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

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  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

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Questions from Tarbrax

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

How much do I need to move?

Only around the repair. You can usually still use the rest of the kitchen.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Clean spills immediately

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

What your worktop is made of matters

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.

Granite and stone

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

How we price worktop repair

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

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop

Most customers in Tarbrax get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Do you need worktop repair in Tarbrax?

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

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Knife marks
  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Burns from hot pans

What to look for in a quote

  • How the colour is matched
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
