Repair or replace: which is better?

A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

How it works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Abington. The price reflects:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs

Most customers in Abington get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

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

What we work on

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

FAQs for Abington

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is my repair covered?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

What we’re called out for in Abington

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

Look out for these signs:

  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Chips near the sink
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • Burns from hot pans

Before you book anyone

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Abington

For anyone letting property in or around Abington, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
