About our worktop repair in The Hummicks

Pan burns, chipped edges and knife scratches make up most of our worktop work. We repair them all in your kitchen. Our technicians work on laminate, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian), and people most frequently call us about chips on edges and corners and damage around the sink cut-out.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Clean spills right away
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

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

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Should you replace it?

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. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

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

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Your questions about worktop repair in The Hummicks

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, normally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.

  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. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in The Hummicks as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What affects the price in The Hummicks

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to The Hummicks. The price comes down to:

  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
