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 is a few hours with everything left in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What we’re called out for in Thornton Heath

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, and that can make them swell.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • A damaged sink edge
  • Damage to a stone worktop

Our hiring checklist

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • Any details about the material

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

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.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Questions from Thornton Heath

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

What does worktop repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Thornton Heath is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

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, a professional repair is worth it.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

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

Surfaces we repair

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