DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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 pictures.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Worktop repair in Ackton, done in place
The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand so the repair blends in. Whether it’s a damaged sink edge and snagging damage in a new kitchen, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Make sure the area is dry
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Questions from Ackton
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you cover Ackton?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Ackton and the rest of Wakefield. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
In most cases. A picture lets us check what’s possible.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
