Repair or replace: which is better?

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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Work done at your home or business

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

For anyone letting property in or around Sydling St Nicholas, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

How the visit works

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Use a chopping board

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Signs you need worktop repair in Sydling St Nicholas

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Knife marks

Before you book anyone

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether they match the colour on site
