When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
- Failed support under the worktop
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
- Laminate
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- The material
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
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 will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Wipe up spills quickly
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
Your questions about worktop repair in Aylesham
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Do you come to Aylesham?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Aylesham and the rest of Kent. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
If you’re in Aylesham and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Should you replace it?
An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
