Questions from Derwen

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just near the damage. You can typically still use the rest of the kitchen.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Use a chopping board

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

Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported

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

Surfaces we repair

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

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. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Derwen. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
