Repairs by material

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your TQ7 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

When a repair is not the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

10 questions to ask before booking

Your questions about worktop repair in West Charleton

Which areas do you work in?

All of Devon, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can landlords book you?

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

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in West Charleton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in West Charleton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Why repair rather than replace?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
