About our worktop repair in Rowsley

A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. We work on quartz, solid wood and laminate, and the jobs we see most are chips caused during installation and scratches and knife marks.

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What worktop repair costs

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

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.

Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Use a chopping board

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.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Rowsley questions

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire worktop and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
