Worktop repair in Turves, done in place

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. If you’re dealing with a chipped edge and damage to a stone worktop, we can help, whatever the material.

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

Repairing versus replacing in Turves

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. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Turves customers choose us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Work done at your home or business

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Clean spills straight away

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills straight away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

Common problems we fix in Turves

Sink and hob cut-outs are weak points, so cracks and chips frequently start there.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Burns from hot pans
  • Chips near the sink
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • Knife marks

What your quote should include

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How changes to the job are handled

How to compare quotes

When a repair is not the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

FAQs for Turves

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only the area we are working on. The rest is covered and protected.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do you work in Turves?

We do. We send a technician to Turves for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What affects the price in Turves

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

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
