Worktop repair in West Moors, Dorset

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What we can’t put right
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills immediately, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

Repairs by material
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
