Our worktop repair service in Essex

Matching a pattern is the skilled part of a worktop repair. Colour, flecks and veining are recreated by hand. We regularly repair quartz, granite & marble and solid wood, and people most frequently call us about chipped corners and a dent from a dropped pan.

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

What you’ll pay

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Everything repaired in place

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Essex. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Common problems we fix in Essex

Most chips are on edges and corners, typically from pans, tins or dishes knocked against them.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • A chipped edge
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Chips near the sink

Different materials, different repairs

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

Your questions about worktop repair in Essex

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
