Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can price the job without visiting.

Common questions in Forge Wood

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Forge Wood?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

Do you need worktop repair in Forge Wood?

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives leave scratches, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Chips near the sink
  • Dents and gouges

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

10 questions to ask before booking

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Use a chopping board
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills straight away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

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.

Repairs by material

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.
