What we do, step by step

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

What affects the price in Wood's Corner

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Most clients in Wood's Corner get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Should you replace it?

A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one 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. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Everything repaired in place

When a repair is not the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
