Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Trostre. What changes the price is:
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Trostre, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Repairing versus replacing in Trostre
Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What we’re called out for in Trostre
Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans leave burns, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

- A heat mark or burn
- Chips on edges and corners
- Scratches and knife marks
- A dent from a dropped pan
Questions to ask before you book

- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
Different materials, different repairs
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
Landlords, agents and businesses in Trostre
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep wood oiled
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
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.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
