Worktop repair in Tongham, done in place

Different worktops need different repairs: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. We always aim for a repair that blends in. Typical jobs include a heat mark or burn and scratches and knife marks, in laminate, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian).

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Keep joints and edges dry

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills immediately, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

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

Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Tongham questions

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Tongham?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, matched and polished.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

How much do I need to move?

Just near the damage. You can usually still use the rest of the kitchen.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

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

What we work on

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

Landlord and trade work in Tongham

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

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Damage from fitting or building work

What your quote should include
