Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

FAQs for Elton
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
What does worktop repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Elton
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Repair or replace in Elton?
Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Do you need worktop repair in Elton?
Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, and that can make them swell.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Burns from hot pans
- Knife marks
- A damaged sink edge
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
Before booking anyone
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What aftercare is recommended
- How your room will be protected
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Keep wood oiled
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Dry around the sink and joints
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
