Should you replace it?
A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Clean spills right away
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Re-oil timber worktops
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What affects the price in Staden
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Staden. The price comes down to:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
The quickest way to a price is to 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 Staden
Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, which can cause swelling.
The things customers usually mention when they call are:
- Burns from hot pans
- A chipped quartz edge
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- A chipped edge
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What protection goes down before work starts
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
