Worktop Repair in Addiscombe
Fixed-price worktop repair in Addiscombe and the surrounding area, generally in one visit.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips on edges and corners
- Chips near the sink

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Keep wood oiled
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills immediately, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
Worktop repair in Addiscombe without replacing anything
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. We always aim for a repair that blends in. Whether it’s chips in quartz or granite and scratches and knife marks, we can generally put it right.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Common questions in Addiscombe
Do you work in Addiscombe?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Addiscombe from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
What does worktop repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CR0 postcode.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What your worktop is made of matters
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.
When we’d advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- A top that moves on its units
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble

What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Addiscombe. The price reflects:
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?
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, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
