Worktop repair for Temple homes

Worktop repair at your home in Temple

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Common call-outs are for chips in quartz or granite and knife marks, across quartz, solid surface (such as Corian) and solid wood.

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Greater London and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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 generally cheaper.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area

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

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Temple, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

When a repair is not the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Water-swollen laminate

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Use a chopping board
  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Re-oil timber worktops

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

Different materials, different repairs

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
