Repairing versus replacing in Crateford

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Crateford. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Questions from Crateford

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

In most cases. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you.

Do you repair quartz?

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

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just near the damage. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

  • Knife marks
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Damage from fitting or building work

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Staffordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Wipe up spills quickly

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

What your worktop is made of matters

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

Granite and stone

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