How we handle worktop repair in Woburn Sands

A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. We fill and refinish the damage to blend into the surface around it. We’re often asked to fix damage from fitting or building work and scratches and knife marks, in granite & marble, quartz and solid surface (such as Corian).

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

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

Repairing versus replacing in Woburn Sands

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Common problems we fix in Woburn Sands

The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

Customers generally contact us about:

  • Dents and gouges
  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Damage from fitting or building work

Before you book anyone

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Who turns up on the day

Our hiring checklist

When a repair is not the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Re-oil timber worktops

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Different materials, different repairs

Wood

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

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
