About our worktop repair in Addington
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. We always aim for a repair that blends in. Typical jobs include chips caused during installation and chips near the sink, in laminate, solid surface (such as Corian) and quartz.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Your questions about worktop repair in Addington
How much do I need to move?
Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Are there extra charges for Addington?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
Typically, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Don’t knock pans against the edge
- Keep wood oiled
- Wipe up spills quickly
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- The area around the damage is protected.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What your worktop is made of matters
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

Landlord and trade work in Addington
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Addington use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- No need to remove anything
- No extra charge for your area
- One visit for most repairs
See our prices page.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Addington. The price comes down to:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
