Worktop repair at your home in Woodhouses

A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. Typical jobs include snagging damage in a new kitchen and cuts and scratches in the surface, in granite & marble, quartz and solid wood.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Staffordshire.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage, tidy-up included.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Advice

Should you replace it?

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

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. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Your questions about worktop repair in Woodhouses

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Woodhouses is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you work in Woodhouses?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Woodhouses from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Different materials, different repairs

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Never put hot pans down directly

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How we price worktop repair

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

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • 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’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Do you need worktop repair in Woodhouses?

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives cut, and heavy pans chip the edges.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Chips caused during installation
  • A heat mark or burn
  • Dents and gouges
  • Chips near the sink
