Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Everything repaired in place
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

What affects the price in Danaway

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Solid surface

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
