How we handle worktop repair in Aspenden
A damaged worktop does not have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished so it blends into the pattern. Whether it’s a chipped quartz edge and gouges in the surface, we can generally put it right, on solid wood, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian) alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
For a price in Aspenden, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills right away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. 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 doing several items at once reduces it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
