Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Clean spills immediately
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Use a chopping board
- Do not let water sit on joints
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Open a window if you can

Advice
FAQs for Blackbank
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you cover Blackbank?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Blackbank. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do you repair quartz?
Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Blackbank and the rest of Cumbria. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Blackbank.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
What your worktop is made of matters
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.
Common problems we fix in Blackbank
The worst damage often 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.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Snagging damage in a new kitchen
- Damage around the sink cut-out
- Scratches and knife marks
- Chips in quartz or granite
Questions to ask before booking
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- When it can be used again
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether a trained technician does the job
What we cannot put right
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Blackbank. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
