How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Landlord and trade work in Aberlady
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
For anyone letting property in or around Aberlady, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Advice
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
