Book worktop repair in Illey

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

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.

Quartz

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

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can price the job without visiting.

Should you replace it?

A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

10 questions to ask before you book

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Illey use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

When we would advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Your questions about worktop repair in Illey

How much do I need to move?

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

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure 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.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
