Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Honest limits

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.

Advice

Westcliff-on-Sea questions

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

How much do I need to move?

Only the area we are working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Westcliff-on-Sea?

What your worktop is made of matters

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 scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Clean spills right away
  • Use a chopping board
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills straight away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Should you replace it?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
