How we handle worktop repair in Babbs Green
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. We always aim for a repair that blends in. We regularly repair solid wood, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble, and the jobs we see most are damage from fitting or building work and scratches and knife marks.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Oil wooden tops regularly
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Babbs Green. The price reflects:
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire worktop
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, 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 do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- 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 with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
