About our worktop repair in Etterby

You don’t need a new worktop because of one mark. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the pattern. We work on granite & marble, solid wood and quartz, and people most often call us about snagging damage in a new kitchen and a dent from a dropped pan.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Questions from Etterby

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only the area we are working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.

Do you cover Etterby?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Etterby. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • A top that moves on its units

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

Surfaces we repair

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

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Etterby. The price comes down to:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Solid surface

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

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.

Should you replace it?

A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One price list for the entire UK

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How the visit works

We turn 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. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
