Worktop repair in Woollensbrook without replacing anything

A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. Typical jobs include snagging damage in a new kitchen and knife marks, across granite & marble, quartz and solid surface (such as Corian).

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Woollensbrook and across Hertfordshire.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Landlord and trade work in Woollensbrook

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Woollensbrook use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Keep a trivet by the hob

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

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Choosing a repair company

Common questions in Woollensbrook

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
