What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Worktop repair in Castletown, done in place

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We are frequently asked to fix damage to a stone worktop and dents and gouges, in granite & marble, quartz and solid surface (such as Corian).

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Common problems we fix in Castletown

Edges and corners chip most often, often when something heavy catches the edge.

The things clients generally mention when they call are:

  • Burns from hot pans
  • Chipped corners
  • Chips near the sink
  • Dents and gouges

What to look for in a quote

  • Who will actually do the work
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

Castletown: your questions answered

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do you come to Castletown?

We do. We send a technician to Castletown for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

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

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Are you accredited?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

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

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Castletown. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

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.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
