Should you replace it?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we do, step by step

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage.

  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 the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to compare quotes

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Woodside. The price reflects:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Landlord and trade work in Woodside

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
