How it works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common questions in Normanby by Stow

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole worktop and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

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

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Normanby by Stow. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Use a chopping board
  • Do not leave spills to soak in

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

What we’re called out for in Normanby by Stow

The worst damage often happens in a moment: 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.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Gouges in the surface
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Damage from fitting or building work

Comparing quotes

  • If travel is included in the price
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
