Worktop repair in Whippendell Bottom without replacing anything

The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand so the repair blends in. Our technicians work on solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate, and common reasons people get in touch are burns from hot pans and damage to a stone worktop.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hertfordshire.

FAQs for Whippendell Bottom

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Often, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you cover the entire of Hertfordshire?

The entire UK, including all of Hertfordshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Whippendell Bottom?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Use a chopping board
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Related advice

Different materials, different repairs

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
