Should you replace it?
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Common questions in Flixton
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes, often. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Flixton
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
When we would advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Failed support under the worktop
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Clean spills immediately
- Keep wood oiled
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Never put hot pans down directly
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
Repairs by material
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.
