  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Chips on edges and corners

How to compare quotes

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Holford. The price comes down to:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For a price in Holford, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Your questions about worktop repair in Holford

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Do you repair quartz?

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

Do you cover the entire of Somerset?

The entire UK, including all of Somerset. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Related advice

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Keep wood oiled

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

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
