Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. 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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, 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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Water-swollen laminate

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

Materials we repair

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

Knossington: your questions answered

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Knossington is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Dry around the sink and joints

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

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Different materials, different repairs

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
