DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

When a repair is not the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

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

What we work on

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

Different materials, different repairs

Granite and stone

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

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Do you need worktop repair in Thornborough?

Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, and that can make them swell.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Knife marks
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • A chipped edge

Comparing quotes

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • When it can be used again

10 questions to ask before booking

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Advice

Common questions in Thornborough

Will you leave a mess?

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

What does worktop repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Do you come to Thornborough?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Thornborough and the rest of Buckinghamshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Keep wood oiled

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can give you a fixed price.
