When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • A top that moves on its units

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace in Meavy?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why Meavy clients choose us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Common questions in Meavy

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you come to Meavy?

We do. We send a technician to Meavy for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

What does worktop repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

How we price worktop repair

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

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Oil wooden tops regularly

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

The process

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Get a quote

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

Different materials, different repairs

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Landlord and trade work in Meavy

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Devon and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
