Worktop repair in Tenterden

Tenterden questions

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

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

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Tenterden?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

How we handle worktop repair in Tenterden

A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the pattern. We regularly repair solid surface (such as Corian), laminate and solid wood, and common reasons people contact us are chips in quartz or granite and burns from hot pans.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • A top that moves on its units

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Tenterden

Repair or replace in Tenterden?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.
