Why repair rather than replace?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Penshurst

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Penshurst. What changes the price is:

  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send photos for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material

Most customers in Penshurst get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What your worktop is made of matters

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Quartz
  • Laminate
  • Granite & marble
  • Solid wood

Your questions about worktop repair in Penshurst

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Will you leave a mess?

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

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Work for landlords and builders

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 photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
