DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

What your worktop is made of matters

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, with burns and dents put right.

Should you replace it?

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why Swanscombe customers choose us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

Take a look at our prices page.

What affects the price in Swanscombe

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Swanscombe. The price reflects:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Swanscombe

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Kent and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Advice

Swanscombe questions

Do you work in Swanscombe?

We do. Technicians travel to Swanscombe from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What does worktop repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DA9 postcode.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole worktop and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
