How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
How it works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.
- The area around the damage is protected.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through 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.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Clean spills straight away
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Should you replace it?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is typically far better value. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Stanford Common. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
