Repair or replace in Hanlith?

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 keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material

If you are in Hanlith and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What your worktop is made of matters

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Hanlith: your questions answered

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Are there extra charges for Hanlith?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Frequently, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across North Yorkshire.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
