Choosing a repair company

Worktop repair in Brinkley without replacing anything

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Our technicians work on quartz, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian), and common reasons people get in touch are a chipped edge and chips caused during installation.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Should you replace it?

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Brinkley. The price comes down to:

  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cambridgeshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

How to care for the repair

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

  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Re-oil timber worktops

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
