Trusted worktop repair in London

Worktop repair at your home in London

The pattern and colour are recreated by hand, so it blends into the surrounding worktop. Water-swollen laminate needs that section replacing, and we’ll tell you before we start. We work on solid wood, quartz and laminate, and common reasons people get in touch are burns from hot pans and cracks around sinks and hobs.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Repairing versus replacing in London

A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Common questions in London

Can a burnt worktop be fixed?

Yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and match the colour and pattern. Deep burns into swollen chipboard may need a section replacing.

When can I use it again after the repair?

Usually by the next day, depending on what we’ve done. We’ll tell you the curing time before we leave.

Can quartz or granite chips be repaired?

Yes. Edge and sink-cut-out chips are the usual jobs, and we fill and polish them to match.

Do you protect the room?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes, usually. The technician needs access to the room while we work, and we’ll agree a time with you.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

Do you come to London?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to London and the rest of Greater London. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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