How we handle worktop repair in Alweston

How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Your questions about worktop repair in Alweston
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What does worktop repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
How much do I need to move?
Only the area we are working on. The rest is covered and protected.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What your worktop is made of matters
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.
What we do, step by step
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Oil wooden tops regularly
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
