Repairing versus replacing in Langlee
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

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 won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Oil wooden tops regularly
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
