Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Different materials, different repairs
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What else we do in Micklethwaite
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

Common questions in Micklethwaite
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole worktop and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
How much does worktop repair cost in Micklethwaite?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you cover the whole of Bradford?
Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.
Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
