DIY kit or professional 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, a professional repair is worth it.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Common problems we fix in Cranoe

Edges and corners chip most frequently, often when something heavy catches the edge.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Chips near the sink
  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Gouges in the surface

How to compare quotes

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Cranoe. The price reflects:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. 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 pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why Cranoe customers choose us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Different materials, different repairs

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

Questions from Cranoe

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Normally. A photo lets us check what’s possible.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Cranoe and the rest of Northamptonshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Use a chopping board

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

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

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours.

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

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the area is dry

Getting a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
