How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed price

Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

What we cannot put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Chelwood Gate

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

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

Most clients in Chelwood Gate get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Don’t let water sit on joints

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills straight away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

Your questions about worktop repair in Chelwood Gate

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you match granite flecks?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Chelwood Gate?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your RH17 postcode.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Chelwood Gate.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

Why repair rather than replace?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
