About our worktop repair in Apse Heath
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We work on solid wood, laminate and quartz, and common reasons people get in touch are chips caused during installation and a chipped edge.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
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.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Apse Heath. What changes the price is:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Apse Heath. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
If you are in Apse Heath and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Questions from Apse Heath
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Are there extra charges for Apse Heath?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.
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.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
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.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Repairs by material
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
Signs you need worktop repair in Apse Heath
The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.
Customers typically contact us about:
- A heat mark or burn
- Chips caused during installation
- Gouges in the surface
- Scratches and knife marks

How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice
When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Water-swollen laminate
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
