What your worktop is made of matters

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Use a chopping board

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills straight away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Bower. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For a price in Bower, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

How to compare quotes

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Work done at your home or business

Your questions about worktop repair in Bower

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

What areas do you cover?

All of Highland, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
