About our worktop repair in Aywick
You do not need a new worktop because of one mark. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. Whether it’s a chipped edge and chips caused during installation, we can help.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Aywick. The price comes down to:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Clean spills straight away
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Re-oil timber worktops
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
Repair or replace in Aywick?
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Aywick questions
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
How much do I need to move?
Only around the repair. You can generally still use the rest of the kitchen.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How much does worktop repair cost in Aywick?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Failed support under the worktop
- Severe heat marks in quartz
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)

What we are called out for in Aywick
Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Gouges in the surface
- Chips near the sink
- Damage to a stone worktop
- Scratches and knife marks
Questions to ask before you book
- Aftercare advice
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Aywick as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
