How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
If you’re in Ochiltree and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Ochiltree questions
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Just near the damage. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.
Landlord and trade work in Ochiltree
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- A top that moves on its units
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz
The process
On the day itself, there’s 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 few hours, depending on the damage.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
Repairing versus replacing in Ochiltree
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is normally far better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
