Worktop repair near Telscombe

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Use a chopping board
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

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

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

Worktop repair in Telscombe without replacing anything

Different worktops need different repairs: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. The goal is always a repair that blends in. We regularly repair solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate, and common reasons people contact us are knife marks and chips on edges and corners.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, 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.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
