Worktop repair near Wick

How we handle worktop repair in Wick

We repair worktops in place. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. We work on solid wood, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian), and people most often call us about dents and gouges and chips in quartz or granite.

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Questions from Wick

How much do I need to move?

Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

Can you match granite flecks?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

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

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Advice

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Use a chopping board

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

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
