How we handle worktop repair in Teddington

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Whether it’s knife marks and burns from hot pans, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Use a chopping board

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills straight away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

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

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not 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.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is usually far better value. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Teddington: your questions answered

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you work in Teddington?

We do. We send a technician to Teddington for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.

What your worktop is made of matters

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Advice

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • A top that moves on its units
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Teddington

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Teddington as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
