Your questions about worktop repair in Betsham
Which areas do you work in?
All of Kent, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
In most cases. A photo lets us check.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Kent.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote. There is no obligation to book.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
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 typically far better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Common problems we fix in Betsham
The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up gradually from knives and grit.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Scorch marks from pans
- Chips in quartz or granite
- A dent from a dropped pan
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen

Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- A top that moves on its units
- Cracks right through stone that has moved

Surfaces we repair
- Quartz
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
Repairs by material
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Clean spills immediately
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Re-oil timber worktops
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Betsham. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
