Why repair rather than replace?

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- A top that moves on its units
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Quartz
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble

Foxhall questions
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Frequently, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.
Signs you need worktop repair in Foxhall
Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- Chipped corners
- A heat mark or burn
- Dents and gouges
What to look for in a quote
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- When it can be used again
- What prep work is covered
What affects the price in Foxhall
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Foxhall. The price depends on:
- The material
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Advice

What else we do in Foxhall
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
