  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.

Worktop repair at your home in Warmlake

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Common call-outs are for damage to a stone worktop and chips on edges and corners, in quartz, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Repairs by material

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.

When to call us in Warmlake

Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, so cracks and chips frequently start there.

The things clients normally mention when they call are:

  • Chipped corners
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Chips near the sink
  • Damage from fitting or building work

Before you book anyone

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Warmlake. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

If you’re in Warmlake and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Warmlake questions

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

What does worktop repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your ME17 postcode.

Do I have to be there?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Are there extra charges for Warmlake?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

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

Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
