Worktop repair for Poughill homes

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. We build up the colour and flecks by hand so the repair blends in. We’re often asked to fix chips near the sink and damage to a stone worktop, across solid surface (such as Corian), laminate and granite & marble.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Devon.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Why Poughill clients choose us

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

Granite and stone

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

When we would advise against a repair

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Poughill: your questions answered

What does worktop repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your EX17 postcode.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes, often. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Poughill.
