Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • Failed support under the worktop

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

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.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Skirbeck. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Skirbeck. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • 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 the same day in most cases.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Skirbeck, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Skirbeck: your questions answered

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only the area we’re working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
