Worktop repair near Westwell Leacon

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

How we handle worktop repair in Westwell Leacon

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Our repair technicians work on quartz, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian), and people most often call us about a damaged sink edge and cuts and scratches in the surface.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills right away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Westwell Leacon

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Different materials, different repairs

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Common questions in Westwell Leacon

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Westwell Leacon and the rest of Kent. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Kent, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Westwell Leacon. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What we cannot put right

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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