Materials and what they mean for the repair

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

About our worktop repair in Uplyme

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand. We regularly repair quartz, solid wood and laminate, and people most frequently call us about knife marks and a damaged sink edge.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Uplyme. The price reflects:

  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Questions from Uplyme

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

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

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only around the repair. You can normally still use the rest of the kitchen.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Uplyme?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Repair or replace in Uplyme?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  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. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can give you a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
