How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

Advice

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Use a chopping board
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills right away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface

Our hiring checklist

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Your questions about worktop repair in Whittlesford

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Do you work in Whittlesford?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Whittlesford and the rest of Cambridgeshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How much do I need to move?

Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Cambridgeshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
