Repair or replace: which is better?
A new worktop means removing the old one, 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. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What else we do in West Buckland
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Do not leave spills to soak in
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
What your worktop is made of matters
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

Questions from West Buckland
Are there extra charges for West Buckland?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
What does worktop repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Devon.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What a repair cannot fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Failed support under the worktop
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in West Buckland
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
