How it works

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

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.

Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your YO8 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting 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. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

What we cannot put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Granite & marble
  • Quartz
  • Laminate
  • Solid wood
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)

When to call us in Gateforth

  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • A damaged sink edge
  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Dents and gouges

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Oil wooden tops regularly

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
