Your questions about worktop repair in Lexden
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can you match granite flecks?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you work in Lexden?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Lexden and the rest of Essex. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Repair or replace in Lexden?
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why Lexden customers choose us
- No need to remove anything
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Lexden. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
When to call us in Lexden
Most chips are on edges and corners, normally from pans, tins or dishes knocked against them.
Clients normally contact us about:
- A dent from a dropped pan
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- Chips near the sink
- Chipped corners
What your quote should include
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How your room will be protected
- When it can be used again
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Never put hot pans down directly
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
