Worktop repair in Barford St John without replacing anything
A damaged worktop doesn’t have to mean a new kitchen. We fill and refinish the damage so it blends into the pattern. We are often asked to fix damage to a stone worktop and chips on edges and corners, on granite & marble, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian).
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Can I fix it myself?
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Discolouration deep in quartz
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
- Quartz
- Solid wood
How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We assess the damage and the worktop material.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can

What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
