About our worktop repair in Ballymena
A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. The damage is filled and refinished to blend into the surface around it. We’re often asked to fix a chipped quartz edge and burns from hot pans, across quartz, solid surface (such as Corian) and granite & marble.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Do not leave spills to soak in
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Do not let water sit on joints
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- The area around the damage is protected.
- We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed and polished to match.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Landlord and trade work in Ballymena
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Ballymena. What changes the price is:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
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.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can give you a fixed price.
What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Failed support under the worktop
- Water-swollen laminate
- Discolouration deep in quartz
