Choosing a repair company

How we handle worktop repair in Caldwell

We repair worktops in place. Most repairs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. Our technicians work on solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and laminate, and people most frequently call us about a chipped edge and scorch marks from pans.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Read our full price list.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Caldwell: your questions answered

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you come to Caldwell?

We do. We send a technician to Caldwell for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only around the repair. You can generally still use the rest of the kitchen.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Caldwell and the rest of Derbyshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?

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

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.
