What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Ash Corner. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.
About our worktop repair in Ash Corner
A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the pattern. We regularly repair solid surface (such as Corian), quartz and granite & marble, and the jobs we see most are damage to a stone worktop and damage around the sink cut-out.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Keep a trivet by the hob
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Should you replace it?
Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Ash Corner questions
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Different materials, different repairs
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
