Worktop repair in Londonderry

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

Repair or replace in Londonderry?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What we are called out for in Londonderry

Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, so cracks and chips often start there.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Chipped corners

What to look for in a quote

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to compare quotes

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Do not knock pans against the edge

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole worktop

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your BT48 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

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