How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Painters Ash. What changes the price is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Questions from Painters Ash
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Kent. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire worktop and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Clean spills straight away
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
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.
Honest limits
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Failed support under the worktop
- Severe heat marks in quartz
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
