Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chips caused during installation
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • A heat mark or burn

Worktop repair in Swffryd without replacing anything

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand so the repair blends in. We work on laminate, quartz and solid wood, and people most often call us about damage to a stone worktop and scratches and knife marks.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Swffryd. The price comes down to:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material

We don’t 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.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it

There’s 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.

Swffryd questions

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

In most cases. A picture lets us check what’s possible.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

Do you cover Swffryd?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Swffryd for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

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. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Swffryd. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Colour-matched on site

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Clean spills immediately
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Keep wood oiled

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills straight away, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
