Repair or replace: which is better?

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colour-matched on site

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Dents and gouges

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

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