How we handle worktop repair in Thurstaston

Each type of worktop needs a different approach: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. The goal is always a repair that blends in. Our technicians work on laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and quartz, and common reasons people get in touch are dents and gouges and chips in quartz or granite.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Clean spills immediately
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

What affects the price in Thurstaston

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
