What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for South Petherwin. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Most clients in South Petherwin get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Dry around the sink and joints
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
