Materials and what they mean for the repair

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

Granite and stone

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

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

If you manage property in Caldecott, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the area is dry

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

For a price in Caldecott, 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.

What we can’t put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Caldecott questions

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What does worktop repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
