Should you replace it?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A photo taken from further back

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

10 questions to ask before you book

Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Use a chopping board
  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

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

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

What we cannot put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

FAQs for Manordeilo and Salem

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
