Why repair rather than replace?
A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

FAQs for Chaldon Herring
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Only the area we are working on. The rest is covered and protected.
Do you work in Chaldon Herring?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Chaldon Herring. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
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.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
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.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Clean spills right away
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Re-oil timber worktops
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
