Appleby Magna questions
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Appleby Magna and the rest of Derbyshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
How we handle worktop repair in Appleby Magna
A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. Common call-outs are for a heat mark or burn and chips near the sink, in quartz, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian).
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

What else we do in Appleby Magna
Why repair rather than replace?
Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Keep wood oiled
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Appleby Magna. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Derbyshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
If you manage property in Appleby Magna, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
What your worktop is made of matters
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal and polish it to the right sheen.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
