What worktop repair costs

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your SN25 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

  • Quartz
  • Laminate

Common questions in Hyde

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do I have to be there?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Swindon. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Clean spills right away
  • Use a chopping board
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
