How we handle worktop repair in Bishops Lydeard
Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. Typical jobs include damage from fitting or building work and a chipped edge, on solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and laminate.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Bishops Lydeard and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Open a window if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
What we can’t put right
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A top that moves on its units
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
- Quartz
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Don’t cut directly on the worktop
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Wipe up spills quickly
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What affects the price in Bishops Lydeard
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes

- Access to the area
- The material and finish
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Bishops Lydeard. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Bishops Lydeard
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Repairs by material
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.
