Book worktop repair in Wimbolds Trafford

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Worktop repair in Wimbolds Trafford without replacing anything

Each type of worktop needs a different approach: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. The goal is always a repair that blends in. Whether it’s gouges in the surface and damage from fitting or building work, we can help, on solid wood, quartz and laminate alike.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

What we cannot put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Repairs by material

Granite and stone

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

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Clean spills straight away
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

What you get with us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colour-matched on site

Take a look at our pricing.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

Choosing a repair company

Common questions in Wimbolds Trafford

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

How much do I need to move?

Only around the repair. You can normally still use the rest of the kitchen.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Wimbolds Trafford and the rest of Cheshire West and Chester. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
