Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Burns from hot pans, chips on edges and scratches from knives make up most of our worktop work. All are repaired in place. We are frequently asked to fix chips near the sink and burns from hot pans, on solid wood, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian).
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Your questions about worktop repair in Jacobs Well
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Surrey.
Should you replace it?
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Keep wood oiled
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Clean spills straight away
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
Signs you need worktop repair in Jacobs Well
Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, and that can make them swell.

The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Jacobs Well. What changes the price is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: 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 quote, not a guess.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
