What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish

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

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your NP20 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Dry around the sink and joints

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Your questions about worktop repair in Stow Park

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Frequently, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

How much do I need to move?

Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Honest limits

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

When to call us in Stow Park

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Chips near the sink
  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • A heat mark or burn

What to look for in a quote

  • How long it needs to cure
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
