Worktop repair for Ulwell homes

Worktop repair in Ulwell without replacing anything

Pan burns, chipped edges and knife scratches are the most common worktop repairs. All are repaired in place. If you’re dealing with chips near the sink and a heat mark or burn, we can help, on solid wood, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian) alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Repair or replace: which is better?

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. A repair is matched to what you have now. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Keep wood oiled

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

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

The process

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ulwell

If you manage property in Ulwell, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

What we are called out for in Ulwell

Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, and that’s where cracks often begin.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Dents and gouges
  • Chipped corners
  • Chips caused during installation

Questions to ask before you book

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How the colour is matched
  • Who will actually do the work

Choosing a repair company

Ulwell questions

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What happens after I send photos?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
