Worktop repair in Wigston Fields

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • What it’s made of, if you know

For a price in Wigston Fields, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Dry around the sink and joints

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

Different materials, different repairs

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Common questions in Wigston Fields

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

When can you do it?

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. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wigston Fields

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

When to call us in Wigston Fields

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Chips near the sink
  • Knife marks
  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • A heat mark or burn

What to look for in a quote

  • How your room will be protected
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
