How we handle worktop repair in Westleigh

You do not need a new worktop because of one mark. We fill and refinish the damage to blend into the surface around it. We work on solid wood, granite & marble and laminate, and common reasons people contact us are chips near the sink and scratches and knife marks.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is normally far better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

See our prices page.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Re-oil timber worktops

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.

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

Common questions in Westleigh

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Westleigh.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed price. There’s no obligation to book.

How much does worktop repair cost in Westleigh?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Typically. A picture lets us check.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Westleigh

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

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
