Worktop repair for Colegate End homes

Why repair rather than replace?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Work done at your home or business
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Clean spills immediately

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

Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

The process

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
