How we handle worktop repair in Askham
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. Our technicians work on solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and quartz, and people most often call us about a damaged sink edge and a chipped edge.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cumbria.

Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How the visit works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Common problems we fix in Askham
Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, which can cause swelling.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- Damage around the sink cut-out
- Chips on edges and corners
- Chips in quartz or granite
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What protection goes down before work starts
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
When a repair is not the answer
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Water-swollen laminate
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
- Laminate
