- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Ballhill. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How we handle worktop repair in Ballhill
A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the area around the damage covered. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. If you’re dealing with chips near the sink and chips on edges and corners, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What your worktop is made of matters
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.
What we’re called out for in Ballhill
Most chips are on edges and corners, often when something heavy catches the edge.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A chipped quartz edge
- Damage around the sink cut-out
- Dents and gouges
- Chips caused during installation
What your quote should include
- How soon you can use it again
- How the colour is matched
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How to look after the finish
Landlords, agents and businesses in Ballhill
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Should you replace it?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Oil wooden tops regularly
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

Questions from Ballhill
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.
Are there extra charges for Ballhill?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
How much do I need to move?
Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
