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. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

FAQs for Broxtowe

Are there extra charges for Broxtowe?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Typically, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

Do you need worktop repair in Broxtowe?

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives leave scratches, and heavy pans chip the edges.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Chips caused during installation
  • A heat mark or burn
  • A chipped quartz edge

What your quote should include

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Our hiring checklist

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Broxtowe, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your NG16 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
