Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

What happens after I send photos?

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

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

In most cases. Send us a picture and we will tell you what’s possible.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just near the damage. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Are there extra charges for Whitlock's End?

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.

How we handle worktop repair in Whitlock's End

A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the pattern. We work on granite & marble, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian), and people most often call us about dents and gouges and chips on edges and corners.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Whitlock's End and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Use a chopping board
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Clean spills immediately

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.

When to call us in Whitlock's End

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, and that can make them swell.

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • Chips near the sink
  • Dents and gouges
  • Knife marks
  • Chips caused during installation

Questions to ask before booking

  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your B90 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
