What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas

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

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area 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. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Ask for a price

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Common problems we fix in Scarborough

Sink and hob cut-outs are weak points, so cracks and chips often start there.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in North Yorkshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Repairing versus replacing in Scarborough

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. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
