Why repair rather than replace?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • We leave the room as we found it

Landlords, agents and businesses in Thorpe Market

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Oil wooden tops regularly

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

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

Thorpe Market: your questions answered

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

What does worktop repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote. You’re under no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

What your worktop is made of matters

Granite and stone

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

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  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. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
