Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Repairs by material
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Your questions about worktop repair in Kilnwood Vale
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you come to Kilnwood Vale?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Kilnwood Vale and the rest of West Sussex. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
What does worktop repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Clean spills right away
- Use a chopping board
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
Landlord and trade work in Kilnwood Vale
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

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