Before and after: damaged granite tiles repaired in place

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Wood

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

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Hargrave. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your IP29 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Questions from Hargrave

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.

Do you come to Hargrave?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Hargrave from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

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.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you need worktop repair in Hargrave?

The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Chipped corners

What your quote should include

  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • When it can be used again
  • How your room will be protected

10 questions to ask before booking

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
