What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Whitechapel. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

We price from pictures so you don’t 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, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

When to call us in Whitechapel

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

People generally call us when they notice one of these:

  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • A chipped edge
  • Knife marks
  • A heat mark or burn

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who turns up on the day
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether the price covers travel

Landlords, agents and businesses in Whitechapel

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

For anyone letting property in or around Whitechapel, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches

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

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage, tidy-up included.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Advice

FAQs for Whitechapel

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Generally, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you cover Whitechapel?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Whitechapel for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, 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 do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Why repair rather than replace?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
