About our worktop repair in Ashwell
You do not need a new worktop because of one mark. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. We are often asked to fix scratches and knife marks and a chipped quartz edge, across quartz, solid surface (such as Corian) and laminate.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and 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. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.
Quartz
Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Ashwell
For anyone letting property in or around Ashwell, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
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.
Why repair rather than replace?
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. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Your questions about worktop repair in Ashwell
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand.

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What happens after I send photos?

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
