DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 usually the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What affects the price in Gayton Thorpe
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Gayton Thorpe. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Keep wood oiled
- Use a chopping board
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why book with us

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Norfolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
