What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in North Evington, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What your worktop is made of matters

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

Wood

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

Landlord and trade work in North Evington

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to compare quotes

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

FAQs for North Evington

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only the area we’re working on. The rest is covered and protected.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Frequently, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Wipe up spills quickly

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

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
