About our worktop repair in Tinker Hey

You do not need a new worktop because of one mark. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. Our repair technicians work on laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and quartz, and the jobs we see most are a chipped edge and a dent from a dropped pan.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Calderdale.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Tinker Hey, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How to look after the repair

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

  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

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