How we handle worktop repair in West Kingston

You do not need a new worktop because of one mark. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. We regularly repair solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and laminate, and the jobs we see most are scratches and knife marks and burns from hot pans.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in West Kingston and across West Sussex.

Repairing versus replacing in West Kingston

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is generally far better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Wipe up spills quickly

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Do you need worktop repair in West Kingston?

The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

People generally call us when they notice something like this:

  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • Gouges in the surface
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the colour is matched
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

When a repair isn’t the answer

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in West Kingston

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

Different materials, different repairs

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
