Worktop repair in The Pound without replacing anything

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Whether it’s cuts and scratches in the surface and damage from fitting or building work, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Landlord and trade work in The Pound

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Common problems we fix in The Pound

Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans scorch, knives leave scratches, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

Common reasons people in The Pound contact us are:

  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Chips caused during installation
  • A dent from a dropped pan

Choosing a repair company

Repairs by material

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

The Pound: your questions answered

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Are there extra charges for The Pound?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in The Pound.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Just near the damage. You can normally still use the rest of the kitchen.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in The Pound

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

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Clean spills straight away
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
