What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Your questions about worktop repair in Mullion
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
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 is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.
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 photos and you’ll get one combined price.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Mullion
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
When to call us in Mullion
Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans scorch, knives cut, and heavy pans chip the edges.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- A chipped quartz edge
- Damage around the sink cut-out
- Scorch marks from pans
- Damage from fitting or building work

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Mullion as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
