What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Bonaly. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage

Questions from Bonaly

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.

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.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Bonaly, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Different materials, different repairs

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Keep joints and edges dry

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Should you replace it?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is normally far better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Bonaly. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
