Worktop repair in Back without replacing anything
We repair worktops in place, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. Our technicians work on solid wood, laminate and quartz, and the jobs we see most are knife marks and a chipped quartz edge.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

FAQs for Back
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
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.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
When a repair is not the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Failed support under the worktop
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Oil wooden tops regularly
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire worktop
If you’re in Back and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Repair or replace in Back?
Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is normally far better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
