What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
For anyone letting property in or around Gillow Heath, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Wipe up spills quickly
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Questions to ask before you book
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How the room is protected while they work
- How soon you can use it again
What happens on the day
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
