How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Upper Hale. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

FAQs for Upper Hale

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Just near the damage. You can typically still use the rest of the kitchen.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Don’t let water sit on joints

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.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Repair or replace in Upper Hale?

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
