What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire worktop
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For a price in Coatham Mundeville, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Worktop repair in Coatham Mundeville, done in place
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We work on granite & marble, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate, and people most frequently call us about a heat mark or burn and damage to a stone worktop.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Your questions about worktop repair in Coatham Mundeville
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
What does worktop repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.

What your worktop is made of matters
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.
Common problems we fix in Coatham Mundeville
Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, and that can make them swell.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Scratches and knife marks
- Damage to a stone worktop
- Gouges in the surface
- Damage from fitting or building work

The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
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.
Landlord and trade work in Coatham Mundeville
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Should you replace it?
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 keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Coatham Mundeville. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
