How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

How we handle worktop repair in South Cheriton

A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. We fill and refinish the damage to blend into the surface around it. We’re often asked to fix chips near the sink and dents and gouges, across solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and quartz.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

South Cheriton questions

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.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Often, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

How much does worktop repair cost in South Cheriton?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

How much do I need to move?

Only around the repair. You can usually still use the rest of the kitchen.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Clean spills straight away
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

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.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Failed support under the worktop

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Quartz
  • Granite & marble

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found 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. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price
