Worktop repair for The Street homes

Worktop repair in The Street without replacing anything

You don’t need a new worktop because of one mark. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the pattern. Typical jobs include burns from hot pans and chipped corners, on quartz, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian).

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in The Street and across Suffolk.

Your questions about worktop repair in The Street

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Generally, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

How much does worktop repair cost in The Street?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

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

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Use a chopping board
  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Oil wooden tops regularly

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

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

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

Surfaces we repair

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

What we’re called out for in The Street

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

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • A heat mark or burn
  • Knife marks
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Damage around the sink cut-out

Questions to ask before booking

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What aftercare is recommended

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

You do not need a survey visit. 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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Repair or replace in The Street?

A new 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 keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How it works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Different materials, different repairs

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
