What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Affetside as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

- Burns from hot pans
What your quote should include
- How soon you can use it again
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether a trained technician does the job
What happens on the day

- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear the area around the damage

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Questions from Affetside
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Are there extra charges for Affetside?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Affetside included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Frequently, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
