About our worktop repair in Publow

Burns from hot pans, chips on edges and scratches from knives make up most of our worktop work. All are repaired in place. We work on solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and laminate, and common reasons people get in touch are snagging damage in a new kitchen and scratches and knife marks.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

  • Colour-matched on site

See our prices page.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Signs you need worktop repair in Publow

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives leave scratches, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Dents and gouges
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Knife marks

What to look for in a quote

  • What prep work is covered
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

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

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

If you manage property in Publow, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

FAQs for Publow

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Typically. A picture lets us check what’s possible.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, filled and polished to match.

What does worktop repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your BS39 postcode.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
