Different materials, different repairs
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
Worktop repair in Westacott without replacing anything
A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen. Most repairs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. We regularly repair granite & marble, solid wood and quartz, and common reasons people contact us are snagging damage in a new kitchen and scratches and knife marks.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What else we do in Westacott
Westacott: your questions answered
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Normally, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
