Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand. We work on quartz, laminate and granite & marble, and people most frequently call us about damage around the sink cut-out and a chipped quartz edge.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

Read our prices page.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Lower Nyland. The price comes down to:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

What we can’t put right

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Quartz
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Laminate
  • Granite & marble
  • Solid wood

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Advice

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

When to call us in Lower Nyland

The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

People usually call us after spotting one of these:

  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Chipped corners
  • Knife marks

Questions to ask before booking

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How your room will be protected

Our hiring checklist

Lower Nyland questions

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How much do I need to move?

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

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
