Repair or replace: which is better?

A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

  • Granite & marble
  • Quartz
  • Laminate
  • Solid wood
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)

FAQs for Heddon-on-the-Wall

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you come to Heddon-on-the-Wall?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Heddon-on-the-Wall. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How much do I need to move?

Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

How it works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Make sure the area is dry

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Heddon-on-the-Wall. The price reflects:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Heddon-on-the-Wall

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

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 typically cheaper.

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.
