Why repair rather than replace?
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. 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.

Questions from Auchinraith
What does worktop repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole worktop and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- 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 us know which floor the room is on
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price

Advice
Places near Auchinraith
Also in Auchinraith
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Keep wood oiled
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.
How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed price
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Different materials, different repairs
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
