Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Repairing versus replacing in Careby
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Prices start 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 you know the cost before you book.
What you get with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- No extra charge for your area

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
FAQs for Careby
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you match granite flecks?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes, often. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Only the area we are working on. The rest is covered and protected.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Use a chopping board
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Never put hot pans down directly
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
What your worktop is made of matters
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
What we are called out for in Careby
Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, which can cause swelling.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A heat mark or burn
- Damage from fitting or building work
- A chipped quartz edge
- A damaged sink edge
What to look for in a quote
- Who will actually do the work
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- When it can be used again
- Whether they match the colour on site
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
