How we handle worktop repair in Babylon

Pan burns, chipped edges and knife scratches are the most common worktop repairs. All are repaired in place. Typical jobs include snagging damage in a new kitchen and a damaged sink edge, across solid surface (such as Corian), laminate and quartz.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Common problems we fix in Babylon

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives leave scratches, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • Dents and gouges
  • A heat mark or burn
  • Chipped corners

What your quote should include

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What prep work is covered
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repairs by material

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Questions from Babylon

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you cover Babylon?

We do. We send a technician to Babylon for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Just near the damage. You can usually still use the rest of the kitchen.

Landlord and trade work in Babylon

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Do not leave spills to soak in

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.

Repairing versus replacing in Babylon

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

What affects the price in Babylon

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Babylon. What changes the price is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • How much damage there is

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
