Worktop repair for Upper Street homes

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Do not leave spills to soak in

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

Worktop repair at your home in Upper Street

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand so the repair blends in. Our repair technicians work on laminate, quartz and solid surface (such as Corian), and people most frequently call us about damage to a stone worktop and knife marks.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Do you work in Upper Street?

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Repairing versus replacing in Upper Street

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  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 match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Landlord and trade work in Upper Street

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Common problems we fix in Upper Street

Sink and hob cut-outs are weak points, and that is where cracks often begin.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Dents and gouges
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Damage around the sink cut-out

Questions to ask before you book

  • How the colour is matched
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How long it needs to cure
  • If travel is included in the price

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?

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 typically cheaper.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
