Wooden worktop being repaired in a customer’s kitchen

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Everything repaired in place

Take a look at our pricing.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What we cannot put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Do you need worktop repair in Twyford?

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

Look out for any of the following:

  • Chips near the sink
  • Knife marks
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Chips caused during installation

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire worktop

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Twyford: your questions answered

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, matched and polished.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

How much does worktop repair cost in Twyford?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Derbyshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
