Materials and what they mean for the repair

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Sticklepath. The price comes down to:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repairing versus replacing in Sticklepath

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Fixed prices from your photos

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Questions from Sticklepath

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Can you match granite flecks?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes, frequently. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Get a quote

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
