Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price

Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Your questions about worktop repair in Asby
How much does worktop repair cost in Asby?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire worktop and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Failed support under the worktop
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
- Quartz
How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.

What else we do in Asby
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
