About our worktop repair in Woodford

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We are often asked to fix damage to a stone worktop and a chipped edge, in solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Woodford as everywhere else we work.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Woodford. What changes the price is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Woodford: your questions answered

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote. You are under no obligation.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

When to call us in Woodford

Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, which can cause swelling.

The things clients usually mention when they call include:

  • Scorch marks from pans
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • A chipped edge

What to look for in a quote

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Choosing a repair company

Landlords, agents and businesses in Woodford

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For anyone letting property in or around Woodford, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

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. Our worktop repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
