What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish

The price 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 you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Questions from Elmore

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Can you match granite flecks?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, filled and polished to match.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Clean spills straight away
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Dry around the sink and joints

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Elmore

For anyone letting property in or around Elmore, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What a repair cannot fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

The process

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Related advice

Should you replace it?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Different materials, different repairs

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
