Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Take a look at our pricing.

What worktop repair costs

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

  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Clean spills immediately

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, because water gets in and swells the board.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
