How we price worktop repair

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What we are called out for in Slaid Hill

Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, which can cause swelling.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Chips near the sink
  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • A dent from a dropped pan

What your quote should include

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Aftercare advice
  • What prep work is covered
  • What protection goes down before work starts

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Do not leave spills to soak in

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.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

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

Surfaces we repair

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

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

If you manage property in Slaid Hill, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
