How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Draethen. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

We price from pictures so you do not 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 you will get a fixed figure back.

Landlord and trade work in Draethen

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Newport and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

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

Granite and stone

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

How to compare quotes

Repairing versus replacing in Draethen

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. 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. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

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 generally takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
