Worktop repair for Cockden homes

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Worktop repair at your home in Cockden

Laminate, quartz, granite, solid surface and wooden worktops can all be repaired, matching the colour and pattern by hand. Nothing is taken out. Our repair technicians work on solid wood, quartz and laminate, and common reasons people get in touch are cuts and scratches in the surface and chips on edges and corners.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Repairs by material

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

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

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

Materials we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Clean spills immediately
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

Common questions in Cockden

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Do you cover Cockden?

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

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
