Worktop repair in Towthorpe

Worktop repair in Towthorpe without replacing anything

The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. We build up the colour and flecks by hand so the repair blends in. We work on laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and solid wood, and people most often call us about damage from fitting or building work and a damaged sink edge.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

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

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Repair or replace in Towthorpe?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Repairs by material

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.

Common problems we fix in Towthorpe

The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Chips near the sink
  • Dents and gouges
  • A chipped quartz edge

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How to care for the finish

Our hiring checklist

Honest limits

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

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

Can I fix it myself?

If you are 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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Towthorpe. The price reflects:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Towthorpe, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Use a chopping board
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

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

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
