How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Harberton

  • Quartz
  • Granite & marble

Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.

Wood

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

What we are called out for in Harberton

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Chips caused during installation
  • Dents and gouges

Comparing quotes

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

  • What protection goes down before work starts

How to compare quotes

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  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
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Wipe up spills quickly

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

Your questions about worktop repair in Harberton

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only the area we’re working on. The rest is covered and protected.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Harberton and the rest of Devon. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, matched and polished.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Harberton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
