How we handle worktop repair in Townsend

Each type of worktop needs a different approach: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. The goal is always a repair that blends in. We regularly repair laminate, solid wood and granite & marble, and the jobs we see most are damage to a stone worktop and chipped corners.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Common questions in Townsend

Are there extra charges for Townsend?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Do you come to Townsend?

We do. We send a technician to Townsend for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

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

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Townsend. What changes the price is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Any details about the material

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Why repair rather than replace?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Townsend

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to care for the repair

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

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

When we would advise against a repair

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
