What else we do in Barkby Thorpe
How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
If you are in Barkby Thorpe and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Barkby Thorpe
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Barkby Thorpe as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Common problems we fix in Barkby Thorpe
Most chips are on edges and corners, typically from pans, tins or dishes knocked against them.
Customers generally contact us about:
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- Scorch marks from pans
- Damage to a stone worktop
- A dent from a dropped pan
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the price covers travel

- How your room will be protected

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
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.
How it works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage, tidy-up included.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Wipe up spills quickly
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills straight away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
Should you replace it?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
What you get with us
- Work done at your home or business
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
