Why repair rather than replace?
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Clean spills immediately
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

Advice
What affects the price in Kingstone
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- One picture of the whole worktop
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
