Worktop repair near Winchester

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

About our worktop repair in Winchester

Pan burns, chipped edges and knife scratches are the most common worktop repairs. All are repaired in place. We regularly repair quartz, solid surface (such as Corian) and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are burns from hot pans and a chipped quartz edge.

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

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A photo taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Winchester questions

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you work in Winchester?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Winchester and the rest of Hampshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole worktop and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

For anyone letting property in or around Winchester, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Repairs by material

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

What we cannot put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Winchester

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

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your SO22 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

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. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One visit for most repairs
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

See our pricing.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Clean spills immediately
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Dry around the sink and joints

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
