About our worktop repair in Cottingley

A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. Whether it’s a chipped quartz edge and a chipped edge, we can usually put it right, on quartz, granite & marble and laminate alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How much does worktop repair cost in Cottingley?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Landlord and trade work in Cottingley

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cottingley use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

The process

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Open a window if you can

Get a quote

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • A top that moves on its units
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.

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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Cottingley. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One price list for the entire UK
