Repair or replace: which is better?

A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Worktop repair at your home in Penruddock

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the area around the damage covered. Most repairs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. We work on quartz, solid wood and laminate, and people most often call us about chips in quartz or granite and scorch marks from pans.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Common questions in Penruddock

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Penruddock?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Penruddock is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only around the repair. You can generally still use the rest of the kitchen.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know about parking or access

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send photos for a quote

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
