Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Derbyshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Different materials, different repairs
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
Quartz
Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

Repair or replace: which is better?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is normally far better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Keep wood oiled
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Water-swollen laminate
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- Discolouration deep in quartz
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)

Common questions in Barrow upon Trent
Can you match granite flecks?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole worktop and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
- 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.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
