Repairing versus replacing in Borwick
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

FAQs for Borwick
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Generally. A photo lets us check what’s possible.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Do you come to Borwick?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Borwick for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We assess 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.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
If you are in Borwick and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Advice
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean spills immediately
- Use a chopping board
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Do not let water sit on joints
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills straight away, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
