How we price worktop repair

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

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • The material

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

What we are called out for in Osgathorpe

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, which can cause swelling.

The things clients generally mention when they call include:

  • Scratches and knife marks
  • A chipped edge
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • A heat mark or burn

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What preparation is included

How to compare quotes

Repairs by material

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Solid surface

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Ensure the area is dry

Advice

Common questions in Osgathorpe

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

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

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, matched and polished.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you come to Osgathorpe?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Osgathorpe and the rest of Leicestershire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Keep a trivet by the hob

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

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

When a repair is not the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
