Repairing versus replacing in Tophill
A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

FAQs for Tophill

Only around the repair. You can normally still use the rest of the kitchen.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, matched and polished.

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A top that moves on its units
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Discolouration deep in quartz
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Laminate
What we’re called out for in Tophill
The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A dent from a dropped pan
- Knife marks
- Scorch marks from pans
- A damaged sink edge
What your quote should include
- When it can be used again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Use a chopping board
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Oil wooden tops regularly
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
