What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  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. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Earlham, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Worktop repair in Earlham without replacing anything

A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. Our repair technicians work on solid wood, laminate and granite & marble, and the jobs we see most are a dent from a dropped pan and chips on edges and corners.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Norfolk.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Take a look at our full price list.

Repairs by material

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Quartz

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

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Use a chopping board
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

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

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Earlham

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Norfolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

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.

What we are called out for in Earlham

Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans leave burns, knives leave scratches, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • Chips caused during installation
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Chipped corners
  • Chips near the sink

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Our hiring checklist

Earlham questions

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

How much do I need to move?

Only around the repair. You can typically still use the rest of the kitchen.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Norfolk. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

How much does worktop repair cost in Earlham?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match

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.

Send pictures for a quote

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop

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