Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Use a chopping board
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Never put hot pans down directly

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills right away, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

What we cannot put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Water-swollen laminate

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back

Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Thrintoft, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Your questions about worktop repair in Thrintoft

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What do you need from me?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Thrintoft use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
