What affects the price in Vassa
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Signs you need worktop repair in Vassa
The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.
Clients typically contact us about:
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- Chips caused during installation
- A damaged sink edge
- Chips on edges and corners
What to look for in a quote
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Repairs by material
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- The area around the damage is protected.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
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 send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Common questions in Vassa
How do I book?

Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
