Worktop repair near Wrabness

What we cannot put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Worktop repair at your home in Wrabness

A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. We are frequently asked to fix a chipped edge and cuts and scratches in the surface, on solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and laminate.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Clean spills right away
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Oil wooden tops regularly

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Repairing versus replacing in Wrabness

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  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. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Related advice

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
