Worktop repair for Drayton homes

Why repair rather than replace?

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the whole worktop

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Different materials, different repairs

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Make sure the area is dry

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills straight away, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
