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, a repair is the better value. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why Cropper customers choose us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

See our prices page.

Different materials, different repairs

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and 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 marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What affects the price in Cropper

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

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

Materials we repair

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

Do you need worktop repair in Cropper?

The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Chips near the sink
  • Gouges in the surface

Before you book anyone

  • When it can be used again
  • What preparation is included
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • If travel is included in the price

10 questions to ask before booking

Your questions about worktop repair in Cropper

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you come to Cropper?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Cropper from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
