DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Common questions in Monkerton

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How much does worktop repair cost in Monkerton?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Generally, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Do you cover Monkerton?

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

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Monkerton

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

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Make sure the area is dry

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

Granite and stone

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

Do you need worktop repair in Monkerton?

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Dents and gouges
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • A chipped edge
  • Chips caused during installation

Before booking anyone

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

How to compare quotes

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Keep a trivet by the hob

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
