Worktop repair for Franche homes

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Franche. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

10 questions to ask before booking

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Use a chopping board
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Do not let water sit on joints

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

FAQs for Franche

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole worktop and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only around the repair. You can typically still use the rest of the kitchen.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

What does worktop repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your DY11 postcode.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

In most cases. Send us a photo and we will tell you what’s possible.

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 crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Franche
