Worktop repair in Apethorpe without replacing anything
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We work on solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble, and common reasons people contact us are damage around the sink cut-out and scratches and knife marks.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Apethorpe
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Apethorpe as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your PE8 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- A top that moves on its units
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- The area around the damage is protected.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
- The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Never put hot pans down directly
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
