Worktop repair near Tilford

Worktop repair in Tilford without replacing anything

We repair worktops in place, with the area around the damage covered. Most repairs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. We work on quartz, granite & marble and laminate, and the jobs we see most are damage from fitting or building work and damage around the sink cut-out.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

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

Surfaces we repair

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

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.

Wood

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

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Tilford questions

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Will it make a mess?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Surrey.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you cover the entire of Surrey?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How we price worktop repair

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
