Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills immediately, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Kexby. What changes the price is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

When we would advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Questions from Kexby

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

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.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
