Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

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

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Clean spills straight away
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Should you replace it?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your EX2 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price
