How it works
On the day, 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.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice
How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A picture taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Dalwood: your questions answered
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
How much does worktop repair cost in Dalwood?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
How much do I need to move?
Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Never put hot pans down directly
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills immediately, and keep wooden tops oiled.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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 normally the cheaper route.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
For anyone letting property in or around Dalwood, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
Why repair rather than replace?
Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Dalwood. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
