Worktop repair at your home in Upton

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Whether it’s chipped corners and a chipped quartz edge, we can usually put it right, on granite & marble, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate alike.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

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

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repairing versus replacing in Upton

A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add 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.

FAQs for Upton

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

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

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Do you come to Upton?

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

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Upton, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
