Worktop repair in Waterloo

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Waterloo, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

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.

Worktop repair in Waterloo without replacing anything

Burns from hot pans, chips on edges and scratches from knives are the most common worktop repairs. We repair them all in your kitchen. Typical jobs include snagging damage in a new kitchen and a chipped quartz edge, on solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and granite & marble.

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

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Waterloo. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • The material, if you know it

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.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Use a chopping board
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Oil wooden tops regularly

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

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Common problems we fix in Waterloo

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Dents and gouges
  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Chipped corners

Before you book anyone

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Who will actually do the work

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Failed support under the worktop

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Repair or replace in Waterloo?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Our worktop repair starts from £95. 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.

Why us?

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
