Repair or replace: which is better?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Laminate
  • Granite & marble
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Solid wood
  • Quartz

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material

For a price in Stoke, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Common questions in Stoke

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

What do you need from me?

What happens next?

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
