Worktop repair in Tunstead

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Clean spills immediately
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Do not let water sit on joints

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Worktop repair at your home in Tunstead

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. Our technicians work on laminate, granite & marble and quartz, and people most frequently call us about scorch marks from pans and chips in quartz or granite.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Norfolk.

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tunstead as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

How to compare quotes

Repairs by material

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Solid surface

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

Tunstead questions

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Are you accredited?

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

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire worktop and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Do you come to Tunstead?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Tunstead from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s 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 pictures.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Should you replace it?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
