How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Related advice

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Barr questions

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What does worktop repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your KA26 postcode.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.

Granite and stone

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

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • A top that moves on its units

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Barr

  • Laminate

Repairing versus replacing in Barr

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Barr. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
