Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Abbotsley. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Worktop repair at your home in Abbotsley

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the area around the damage covered. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. We regularly repair solid wood, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian), and people most often call us about damage around the sink cut-out and dents and gouges.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

  • Burns from hot pans
  • Damage from fitting or building work

Our hiring checklist

The process

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send photos for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Something in shot to show the size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Use a chopping board

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

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

What a repair cannot fix

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Solid surface

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

Granite and stone

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