Worktop repair near Birtley Green

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Different materials, different repairs

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

Wood

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

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Keep a trivet by the hob

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

  • Solid wood
  • Quartz
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Laminate
  • Granite & marble

Should you replace it?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why book with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Read our prices page.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
