Your questions about worktop repair in Watersheddings

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes, often. We match the colour and polish the repair.

Do you come to Watersheddings?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Watersheddings and the rest of Oldham. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

In most cases. A picture lets us check.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

Repairing versus replacing in Watersheddings

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Our worktop repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Different materials, different repairs

Wood

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

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
