When to call us in Castledykes

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Scratches and knife marks
- Chips in quartz or granite
- A heat mark or burn
- Chipped corners
Questions to ask before you book
- Who turns up on the day
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- The area around the damage is protected.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

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.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
Typically. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you.
What does worktop repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, filled and polished to match.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

What affects the price in Castledykes

- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote

- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
