What affects the price in Upper Birchwood
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Worktop repair in Upper Birchwood, done in place
We repair worktops in place, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. We are often asked to fix burns from hot pans and damage to a stone worktop, in solid wood, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian).
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What else we do in Upper Birchwood
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Use a chopping board
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
