Repair or replace in Swinderby?
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The material
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A picture taken from further back
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Swinderby, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Swinderby: your questions answered
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, matched and polished.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Wood
Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 is not prepared the repair will not last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- The area around the damage is protected.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Never put hot pans down directly
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
