Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives leave scratches, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

  • A heat mark or burn
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • Gouges in the surface
  • A damaged sink edge

Before booking anyone

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the pattern. Whether it’s chipped corners and burns from hot pans, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Before and after: damaged granite tiles repaired in place

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  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. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Repairing versus replacing in Waterside

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one 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. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What you get with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Take a look at our pricing.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Waterside

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Use a chopping board

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

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What affects the price in Waterside

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
