When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A top that moves on its units
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Gateacre

Repair or replace in Gateacre?
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.
Gateacre questions
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Do you come to Gateacre?
We do. We send a technician to Gateacre for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Keep wood oiled
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gateacre as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Open a window if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
