Worktop repair near Washwood Heath

How we handle worktop repair in Washwood Heath

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most repairs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. Common call-outs are for damage from fitting or building work and gouges in the surface, in solid wood, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian).

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Repairing versus replacing in Washwood Heath

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Keep a trivet by the hob

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
