Worktop repair in The Green

How we handle worktop repair in The Green

We repair worktops in place, with the area around the damage covered. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. Our repair technicians work on laminate, granite & marble and quartz, and people most frequently call us about a dent from a dropped pan and a chipped quartz edge.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

The Green: your questions answered

Do you come to The Green?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to The Green and the rest of Cumbria. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in The Green.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes, often. We match the colour and polish the repair.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Clean spills straight away
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cumbria and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

When to call us in The Green

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives leave scratches, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

Look out for these signs:

  • Chips near the sink
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Damage to a stone worktop

What to look for in a quote

  • What preparation is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How the room is protected while they work

Repair or replace in The Green?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. There are no surprise 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.

What a repair cannot fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

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

Materials we work on in The Green

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

The process

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
