About worktop repair

What worktop repair costs

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

Whether we combine several jobs
Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The colour and finish to match

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A wider photo showing the entire worktop
The material, if you know it
Something in shot to show the size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Orton

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

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