Great Canney questions
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What does worktop repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Essex.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What your worktop is made of matters
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Great Canney. The price comes down to:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Great Canney, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Never put hot pans down directly
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
