Worktop repair in West Bromwich, done in place

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.
Signs you need worktop repair in West Bromwich
Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans leave burns, knives leave scratches, and heavy pans chip the edges.
The things clients typically mention when they call include:
- Chips in quartz or granite
- Damage from fitting or building work
- Chips on edges and corners
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- When it can be used again
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What protection goes down before work starts
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Water-swollen laminate
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in West Bromwich
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Keep wood oiled
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
West Bromwich questions
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do you cover the whole of Sandwell?
All of Sandwell, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
In most cases. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you what’s possible.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Sandwell.
How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- One picture of the whole worktop
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Different materials, different repairs
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

Why repair rather than replace?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
