For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- 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 call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- A top that moves on its units
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
Different materials, different repairs
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
