Repair or replace: which is better?

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why Ditton customers choose us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

See our pricing.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Keep joints and edges dry

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

Different materials, different repairs

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.

What we are called out for in Ditton

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, which can cause swelling.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Burns from hot pans
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Chips near the sink
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What prep work is covered

Choosing a repair company

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ditton

If you manage property in Ditton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ditton use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

What affects the price in Ditton

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Ditton. What changes the price is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For a price in Ditton, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

FAQs for Ditton

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Ditton included. Travel is included in the price.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Just near the damage. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Kent.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage

What a repair can’t fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

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

Surfaces we repair
