We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fivehead as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Clean spills straight away
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Repairing versus replacing in Fivehead
Replacing a 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 leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
