About our worktop repair in Torre

The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. We build up the colour and flecks by hand. Typical jobs include cuts and scratches in the surface and a damaged sink edge, in quartz, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Torre questions

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You will get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

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

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your TA23 postcode.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Normally, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Keep wood oiled

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed price

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • Natural light rather than flash

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
