Worktop repair in Washpit

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Worktop repair in Washpit without replacing anything

Different worktops need different repairs: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. The goal is always a repair that blends in. We’re frequently asked to fix a chipped edge and damage from fitting or building work, across quartz, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian).

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Washpit use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  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. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

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

Laminate

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

Signs you need worktop repair in Washpit

The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • A dent from a dropped pan

Choosing a repair company

FAQs for Washpit

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Repair or replace in Washpit?

Replacing a 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. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • One visit for most repairs
