Worktop repair for Winchelsea Beach homes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

About our worktop repair in Winchelsea Beach

What your worktop is made of matters

Granite and stone

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

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Common problems we fix in Winchelsea Beach

Repairing versus replacing in Winchelsea Beach

A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price 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 price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  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. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
