Worktop repair in Wotter without replacing anything

Pan burns, chipped edges and knife scratches make up most of our worktop work. We repair them all in your kitchen. We regularly repair solid surface (such as Corian), laminate and quartz, and people most frequently call us about chips caused during installation and cuts and scratches in the surface.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wotter

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

If you manage property in Wotter, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Repairing versus replacing in Wotter

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is normally far better value. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

10 questions to ask before booking

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode

If you are in Wotter and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. 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.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

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

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

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
