Worktop repair in Cop Street

How it works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.

  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. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

About our worktop repair in Cop Street

A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. We are often asked to fix snagging damage in a new kitchen and a dent from a dropped pan, in solid wood, laminate and granite & marble.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Wipe up spills quickly

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

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed price

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Choosing a repair company

Should you replace it?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is generally far better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What you get with us

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

See our pricing.

Can I fix it myself?

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

FAQs for Cop Street

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What happens after I send pictures?

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

Do you work in Cop Street?

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

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
