What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Linton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Re-oil timber worktops
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.

Linton questions
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do you cover Linton?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Linton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
Why repair rather than replace?
A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
