How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Whixley. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One picture of the whole worktop
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
If you are in Whixley and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Whixley: your questions answered
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Repair or replace in Whixley?
Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Whixley as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
