Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Jack's Hatch. What changes the price is:
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Jack's Hatch. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Landlord and trade work in Jack's Hatch
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
For anyone letting property in or around Jack's Hatch, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Keep wood oiled
- Use a chopping board
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
Should you replace it?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
