Repair or replace in Lennie?

A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

10 questions to ask before you book

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Use a chopping board
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Never put hot pans down directly

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Lennie. The price comes down to:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your EH12 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Failed support under the worktop

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

Materials we repair

  • Solid wood
  • Laminate
  • Quartz
  • Granite & marble

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Your questions about worktop repair in Lennie

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
