Worktop repair at your home in Wetherden

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the area around the damage covered. Most repairs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. We are often asked to fix a dent from a dropped pan and chips in quartz or granite, on solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and quartz.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is typically far better value. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Questions from Wetherden

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes, frequently. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Do you work in Wetherden?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Wetherden from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Wetherden?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

What your worktop is made of matters

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

Solid surface

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

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know about parking or access

  • The type of damage

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

When to call us in Wetherden

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Gouges in the surface
  • A chipped edge
