Worktop repair near West Street

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

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

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Should you replace it?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it

If you’re in West Street and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

10 questions to ask before booking

Your questions about worktop repair in West Street

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Solid surface

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

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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, a professional repair is worth it.
