Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Wipe up spills quickly
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- The material
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Repairing versus replacing in Thwaite
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. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
