Worktop repair in Welshampton without replacing anything

The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. We build up the colour and flecks by hand so the repair blends in. We are often asked to fix scratches and knife marks and chipped corners, across solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and laminate.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Welshampton questions

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Frequently, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do you work in Welshampton?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Welshampton and the rest of Shropshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Welshampton

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Choosing a repair company

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

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

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Use a chopping board
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Don’t let water sit on joints

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Welshampton

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
