Materials and what they mean for the repair
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Laminate
Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
What affects the price in Blackdog
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The material
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole worktop
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Clean spills straight away
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
- We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- A top that moves on its units
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Water-swollen laminate
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Granite & marble

Your questions about worktop repair in Blackdog
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Are there extra charges for Blackdog?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
