Common questions in Allt
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How much do I need to move?
Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What your worktop is made of matters
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
What we’re called out for in Allt
Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans scorch, knives cut, and heavy pans chip the edges.
People generally call us when they notice something like this:
- Chipped corners
- A heat mark or burn
- A damaged sink edge
- Damage from fitting or building work

For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Clean spills immediately
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Oil wooden tops regularly
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Water-swollen laminate
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Allt. What changes the price is:
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Advice
Should you replace it?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
