Wooden worktop being repaired in a customer’s kitchen

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

Granite and stone

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

What affects the price in Cockermouth

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Cockermouth. What changes the price is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A photo taken from further back

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Cockermouth questions

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Cockermouth?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

How much do I need to move?

Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.

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 repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Related advice

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Keep wood oiled

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Landlord and trade work in Cockermouth

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
