  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Worktop repair in Tillington Common, done in place

Different worktops need different repairs: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. The goal is always a repair that blends in. Our repair technicians work on granite & marble, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian), and the jobs we see most are cuts and scratches in the surface and chips on edges and corners.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

How it works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

We price from photos 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 will get a fixed figure back.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Your questions about worktop repair in Tillington Common

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only around the repair. You can typically still use the rest of the kitchen.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.

What happens after I send photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Signs you need worktop repair in Tillington Common

  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface

10 questions to ask before you book

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Normally one visit, start to finish

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Never put hot pans down directly

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

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tillington Common use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
